Table 1.

MIC distribution for all S. suis isolates in the study between 2009 and 2014. (For interpretation of the references to colour in the Table, the reader is referred to the web version of this article.)

Note: White cells indicate the dilution range tested. Values in the grey indicate MIC values over the highest concentration in the tested range. Green and red vertical lines respectively describe the sensitive and resistant clinical breakpoints recommended by the CLSI, 2013a, CLSI, 2013b. Detailed information about MIC values for each subset of isolates is available in the supplementary tables.

^*Amoxicillin/Clavulanate combination was tested in a concentration ratio of 2:1. MIC values in the table represent Amoxicillin concentrations.

^**Trimethoprim/Sulfamethoxazole combination was tested in a concentration ratio of 1:2. MIC values in the table represent Sulfamethoxazole concentrations.
