title: Antibiotic susceptibility of enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli O157:H7 isolated from an outbreak in Japan in 1996.
abstract: The antibiotic susceptibilities of 43 strains of Escherichia coli O157:H7 identified in the summer of 1996 in Japan were investigated. Growth of 90% of O157 strains was inhibited at a concentration of < or = 0.5 micro/ml by several agents including fosfomycin with glucose-6-phosphate.
