MBC/MIC ranges of clinical strains

Range of MBC/MICa
Organism (no. of strains) FTI tobramycin fosfomycin
S. aureus (10) 1–2 1–2 1–8
S. pneumoniae (7) 1–4 1–2 1–16
P. aeruginosa, non-CF (10) 1–4 1–2 2–8
P. aeruginosa, CF (8) 1–4 1–4 2–>16
E. coli (10) 1–4 1–4 1–8
Klebsiella spp. (5) 1 1–4 1–4
H. influenzae (6) 1–8 1–2 1–8

aThe MBC/MIC ratio was calculated by dividing the MBC (mg/L) by the MIC (mg/L).
