Abstract
In vitro susceptibilities of anaerobic bacteria (Bacteroides spp., Fusobacterium spp., Clostridium spp., and Peptococcus sp.) and of Campylobacter jejuni and C. coli to niridazole and metronidazole were determined. The minimum inhibitory concentrations for niridazole ranged from 0.0037 to 1.0 microgram/ml and, for metronidazole, from 0.25 to 128 micrograms/ml.This publication has 12 references indexed in Scilit:
