摘要: An agar dilution procedure was used to evaluate the antimicrobial susceptibility of 2,126 anaerobic bacteria isolated from a broad spectrum properly obtained clinical specimens. Significant numbers ofBacteroides species,Fusobacterium species, Gram-positive cocci, and nonsporeforming bacilli would not grow on Wilkins-Chalgren in procedure. The failure obtain growth theBacteroides species special concern since these organisms generally show higher degree resistance antibiotics than other bacteria, which failed or grew poorly that medium. When compared investigations, data indicated an emerging resistnace clindamy forB. thetaiotaomicron andB. distasonis. IndividualClostridium showed wide divergence susceptibility.
