*

This reference determined MIC50 and MIC90. The MIC listed is for MIC50, consistent with the other references.

†

This reference tested susceptibility of environmental and clinical strains at various temperatures. The MIC listed is for clinical isolates grown at 35°C, consistent with the other references.
