a

There are no breakpoint interpretations for omadacycline and tigecycline against Nocardia species in the CLSI M24S-2; therefore, only the MIC50 and MIC90 are reported.

b

MIC values are reported in units of µg/mL.

c

OMC: omadacycline, MIN: minocycline, TGC: tigecycline, SXT: trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, LZD: linezolid, CIP: ciprofloxacin, IMI: imipenem, AXO: ceftriaxone, CIP: ciprofloxacin, AMI: amikacin.

d

Nocardia species includes species with ≤6 isolates and Nocardia spp. that could not be identified to species level. This group consisted of N. vulneris (n = 6), N. asteroides (n = 4), N. transvalensis complex (n = 4), N. africana/nova (n = 3), N. pseudobrasiliensis (n = 3), N. brasiliensis/vulneris (n = 2), N. farcinica/kroppenstedtii (n = 2), N. africana (n = 1), N. amikacinoitolerans (n = 1), N. araoensis (n = 1), N. araoensis/niwae (n = 1), N. carnaea (n = 1), N. grenadensis (n = 1), N. rhamnosiphila (n = 1), N. sienata (n = 1), N. thailandica (n = 2), N. vinacea (n = 1), and Nocardia spp. (n = 3).
