Antimicrobial susceptibilities of 40 isolates of Bacillus anthracis isolated in Turkey
Abstract
Forty clinical isolates of Bacillus anthracis were studied. The MIC(90) values of penicillin G, doxycycline, ciprofloxacin, gatifloxacin, and levofloxacin were 0.016, 0.03, 0.06, 0.06 and 0.12 mg/l, respectively. Susceptibilities suggest that the quinolones may also be considered as an alternative therapy for anthrax.
