Determination of the Resistance of Clinically Isolated Bacteria to Meropenem / 中国药房

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE:To determine the resistance of clinically isolated bacteria to meropenem METHODS:The resistance of 150 clinically isolated strains to meropenem and several other antibiotics was detected by K-B method and the drug resistant spectra to E coli were compared between meropenem and imipenem RESULTS:The sensitivity of 130 clinical isolates to meropenem was 100% No cross resistant strains of E coli was found to meropenem and imipenem CONCLUSION:Meropenem is highly sensitive to the clinical isolates,and its antibacterial spectrum is similar to that of imipenem
