title: Susceptibility of New Zealand isolates to anaerobic bacteria to tinidazole.
abstract: 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.
