title: In vitro activities of tigecycline (GAR-936) and 12 other antimicrobial agents against 90 Eikenella corrodens clinical isolates.
abstract: The activity of tigecycline was compared with those of other antimicrobials against 90 isolates of Eikenella corrodens. The MIC at which 90% of the isolates were inhibited was 2 micro g/ml for tigecycline and 1, </=0.5/0.25, 0.5, </=0.12, </=2, and 0.5 micro g/ml for ampicillin, amoxicillin-clavulanate, cefotaxime, imipenem, chloramphenicol, and ciprofloxacin, respectively.
