Antimicrobial susceptibility of Aeromonas species isolated from patients with diarrhea.

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

In vitro susceptibility to 17 antimicrobial agents was determined for Aeromonas caviae, A. hydrophila, and A. sobria isolated from feces of patients with diarrhea. The three Aeromonas species shared a similar susceptibility pattern, except to cephalothin. Of the oral antimicrobial agents, the quinolones, followed by chloramphenicol, were most active; trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and tetracycline had good but variable activity.
