Susceptibility categories were determined according to the CLSI Clinical Break Points (CBP) as susceptible (S), intermediate (I), and resistant (R) or the E-coff values (ECV) as wild type (WT) and non-wild type (non-WT) when CBPs are not available (Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute [CLSI], 2012). Because of the low numbers of strains within other species than the four detailed in the table, susceptibility data are not detailed.
