Abbreviations: MIC90= minimum inhibitory concentration for 90% of isolates.

Notes: For entries with multiple studies, data are the range.To be included, studies had to have a minimum of 10 isolates of the microorganism-of-interest, use a National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards – approved methodology, and an inoculum of 104–106organisms.
