title: Susceptibility of Capnocytophaga to antimicrobial agents.
abstract: A total of 22 clinically isolated Capnocytophaga strains were tested for their susceptibility to antimicrobial agents frequently used in dental practice. All strains were susceptible to penicillin, ampicillin, cefaclor, cefuroxime, erythromycin, clindamycin and tetracycline. Metronidazole had poor activity against most strains.
