Drug sensitivity of Proteus species

C T Huang 1, Grace Chou 1
PMCID: PMC473673  PMID: 5697323

Abstract

The results of sensitivity test for four Proteus species were compared. P. mirabilis was, in general, more drug sensitive than the other species and P. rettgeri was the least sensitive. The conclusion was drawn that species identification of Proteus is essential in routine bacteriological diagnosis.
