摘要: ABSTRACT Due to emerging resistance traditional antimicrobial agents, such as ampicillin, trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, and chloramphenicol, azithromycin is increasingly used for the treatment of invasive Salmonella infections. In present study, 696 isolates non-Typhi collected from humans, food animals, retail meats in United States were investigated susceptibility azithromycin. Seventy-two enterica serotype Typhi humans also tested. For each isolate, MICs 15 other agents determined by broth microdilution. Among isolates, among human ranged 1 32 μg/ml, whereas animal meat 2 16 μg/ml 4 respectively. μg/ml. The highest MIC observed study was it detected three belonging serotypes Kentucky, Montevideo, Paratyphi A. Based on our findings, we propose an epidemiological cutoff value (ECOFF) wild-type ≤16 data provided could be combination with clinical outcome determine tentative breakpoints enterica.
