Abstract

The antibiotic susceptibilities of 16 clinical isolates of Aeromonas hydrophila obtained from cancer patients with septicemia were studied. Of the new beta-lactam antibiotics tested, azthreonam and moxalactam were the most active, followed by cefoperazone, cefotaxime, and ceftizoxime. Excellent activity was demonstrated by chloroamphenicol, tetracycline, aminoglycosides, and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole. Semisynthetic penicillins had no appreciable activity against this organism.
