Abstract excerpt
For use in human chemotherapy, there are several different substances for nearly each substance group available which cannot all be checked in routine susceptibility testing. If the bacterial resistance mechanisms and cross-resistance conferred by them are known, particular test substances can be selected and the results are interpreted on the basis of cross-resistance. Test substances correspond to those...
