Susceptibility of New Zealand isolates to anaerobic bacteria to tinidazole.
Minimum inhibitory and minimum bactericidal concentrations (MIC, MBC) of tinidazole for 80 New Zealand isolates of anaerobic bacteria were determined. Growth of 95 percent of the isolates was inhibited by 4 micrograms/ml or less of tinidazole. MBC values were the same as, or one dilution higher than, the MIC.
