Abstract

Susceptibility tests with twenty eight antibacterials on 766 strains of organisms, isolated between 1982 and 1984 showed some important findings, when compared with the results of similar tests on a series of strains isolated between 1977 and 1980.

Esch. Coli was still the most common organism causing urinary tract infections, but in this study instead of Gentamicin Norfoloxacin was the most effective drug.

Gentamicin no longer occupied the previous position and resistance to it of most of the isolates had increased.
