Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: Bartonella sp. are intracellular bacteria associated with an increasing number of clinical manifestations but with few published data on in vitro susceptibility testing of antibiotics. Our objective was to evaluate in vitro antibiotic susceptibilities of 20 new Bartonella isolates from animals in Australia. METHODS: MICs were determined using Etest assay on Columbia agar supplemented with 5% horse...
