Abstract
Against 443 aerobic and anaerobic bacteria isolated from diabetic foot infections, ceftobiprole MICs (μg/ml) at which 90% of the isolates tested were inhibited were as follows: methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus , 1; methicillin-susceptible S. aureus and Staphylococcus lugdunensis , 0.5; Anaerococcus prevotii , 0.125; Finegoldia magna , 0.5; Peptoniphilus asaccharolyticus , 1; Peptostreptococcus anaerobius , 4; Escherichia coli and Enterobacter species, 0.125; Klebsiella species, 2; and Pseudomonas aeruginosa , 8.Keywords
