Analysis of metronidazole susceptibility in different Clostridium difficile PCR ribotypes.

The Journal of antimicrobial chemotherapy - 1 Feb 2013

Moura Ines, Spigaglia Patrizia, Barbanti Fabrizio, Mastrantonio Paola

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: Susceptibility to metronidazole was investigated in 81 Clostridium difficile strains, belonging to nine different PCR ribotypes, by three different laboratory methods. METHODS: MICs for 81 C. difficile clinical isolates were determined by Etest, the agar dilution method (ADM) and the agar incorporation method (AIM). Twenty selected strains were also subjected to subinhibitory concentrations of...
