Abstract excerpt
Six multiply resistant isolates of Salmonella typhimurium var. copenhagen with high-level resistance to fluoroquinolones (e.g., MIC of ciprofloxacin: 32 micrograms/ml) were isolated from human patients (n = 3) and from cattle (n = 3). The isolates were examined by complementation tests using a se...
