Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: To compare the bactericidal activity and frequency of mutation for meropenem and imipenem against Proteus mirabilis, Morganella morganii and Providencia rettgeri. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) were determined by agar dilution method. Bactericidal activi...
