Representation of the minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) results of P. aeruginosa PA01 strain and the sub-inhibitory concentrations chosen for the study.
S.no | Antibiotics | MIC (µg/mL) | 1/4th sub-inhibitory MIC (µg/mL) |
---|---|---|---|
1 | Cefotaxime | 64 | 16 |
2 | Ciprofloxacin | 2 | 0.5 |
3 | Gentamicin | 16 | 4 |
4 | Meropenem | 32 | 8 |
5 | Tetracycline | 32 | 8 |
The resistance breakpoint (µg/mL) of Cefotaxime is ≥ 64, Ciprofloxacin is ≥ 4, Gentamicin is ≥ 16, Meropenem is ≥ 16, Tetracycline is ≥ 16 according to CLSI guidelines. The numbers in bold represent resistance.
