Abstract
The in vitro activity of penicillin, cefoxitin, moxalactam, ticarcillin, clindamycin, chloramphenicol, and metronidazole against 590 anaerobic isolates collected from five Canadian hospitals during 1984 was determined by an agar dilution technique. Cefoxitin, clindamycin, chloramphenicol, and metronidazole were very active against most of the isolates. No major regional differences in the susceptibility patterns were observed.This publication has 22 references indexed in Scilit:
