title: Resistogram typing of Shigella flexneri.
abstract: Fifty strains of Shigella flexneri from sporadic cases of bacillary dysentery were tested for their resistance to 7 antibacterial compounds. Sixteen combinations or results were obtained and these were used to form resistograms for the bacteria. The results agreed well with those of serotyping.
