title: [Susceptibility of Vibrio cholerae El-Tor strains to various antibiotics].
abstract: In this study, the in-vitro activity of ampicillin, chloramphenicol, oxytetracycline, trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (TMP-SMX), cefoperazone, ceftriaxone, cefotaxime, ceftizoxime, ofloxacin, pefloxacin, ciprofloxacin, and fleroxacin against clinically isolated strains of V. cholerae biotype El-Tor have been investigated. The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) were determined using the microtube dilution technique except for TMP-SMX which was tested by agar dilution technique. All of El-Tor strains tested have been found to be susceptible to all the antibiotics used in this study. The antimicrobial therapy proposals on cholera in adults reviewed.
