Abstract

Sch 20656 and netilmicin (Sch 20569), two new semisynthetic aminoglycosides, were as active as gentamicin and tobramycin against Enterobacteriaceae . Against Pseudomonas aeruginosa , Sch 20656 was the least active, whereas netilmicin was active against many highly gentamicin-resistant isolates.
