RESUMO
A total of 745 gram-negative and 313 gram-positive clinical isolates were tested against enoxacin, ticarcillin plus clavulanic acid, aztreonam, imipenem, and piperacillin and compared with commonly used antimicrobial agents. Ticarcillin plus clavulanic acid, imipenem, and piperacillin were active against Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Acinetobacter spp. and most Pseudomonas spp. Aztreonam was active against members of the family Enterobacteriaceae but was less effective against the nonfermenters. Enoxacin was active against the Enterobacteriaceae, P. aeruginosa, the staphylococci, and most Acinetobacter spp. but was less active against Pseudomonas spp. and streptococci. Imipenem was very active against all gram-positive and -negative organisms tested except for Pseudomonas maltophilia.
