Abstract
Seven strains of Fusobacteria were tested for in vitro sensitivity to aureomycin, chloramphenicol, dihydrostreptomycin, penicillin G, streptomycin, terramycin, and tyrothricin. The organisms were most sensitive to penicillin G (0.05 to 0.25 U. /ml.). Aureomycin, chloramphenicol, terramycin, and tyrothricin showed high growth-inhibitory activity. Resistance to dihydrostreptomycin and streptomycin was evident.Keywords
