Antimicrobial Activities of Ceftazidime-Avibactam and Comparator Agents against Clinical Bacteria Isolated from Patients with Cancer.

abstract：:MICs of Bay 12-8039 and comparative antimicrobials were determined for 820 recent clinical isolates. Ciprofloxacin was approximately 2-fold more active than Bay 12-8039 and ofloxacin against Enterobacteriaceae and approximately 8-fold more active against Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Bay 12-8039 was approximately 2- to 16-f...
