aData obtained from published studies (11, 13, 1518).

bCategorical discrimination between resistant (R) and susceptible (S).

cNA, not available. EUCAST indicates that there is not yet available evidence that the species in question is a good target for therapy with the drug.

d“–” indicates that susceptibility testing is not recommended as the species is a poor target for therapy with the drug.

ECOFF, epidemiological cut-off; CBP, clinical breakpoint.
