title: Effect of antibiotics contained in two Brucella selective media on growth of Brucella abortus, B. melitensis, and B. ovis.
abstract: The MIC and the highest concentration enabling bacterial growth (CEG) of the antibiotics contained in two selective media were determined for Brucella abortus, B. melitensis, and B. ovis. The nalidixic acid and bacitracin contained in Farrell's selective medium were responsible for the inhibitory effects observed.
