title: Comparison of susceptibilities of anaerobic bacteria to cefmenoxime, ceftriaxone, and other antimicrobial compounds.
abstract: The minimal inhibitory concentrations of cefmenoxime, cefotaxime, cefoxitin, ceftriaxone, chloramphenicol, clindamycin, and moxalactam were determined by agar dilution for 202 clinical isolates of anaerobic bacteria. Cefoxitin and moxalactam were the most active among the cephalosporin-like compounds.
