title: [Sensitivity of Algerian Salmonella strains to antibiotics and sulfonamides].
abstract: Four hundred and fourty two Algerian strains of Salmonella, including 392 strains of S. typhi and 50 strains of S. wien were studied with respect to their sensitivity to 36 antibiotics, nitrofurans and sulfonamides. It was found that the hemocultures of Salmonella had a low sensitivity to penicillin and a markedly pronounced sensitivity to ampicillin and tetracyclines. The coprocultures were resistant to these antibiotics. The hemocultures were more sensitive to cephalosporins, streptomycin, levomycetin, sulfamide and aminoglycosides as compared to the coprocultures. All the Salmonella isolates were highly sensitive to bactrim, negram, gentamicin and tobramycin.
