title: In vitro activities of several antimicrobial agents against recently isolated and genotyped Chlamydia trachomatis urogenital serovars D through K.
abstract: A systematic evaluation of the susceptibility of all Chlamydia trachomatis urogenital serovars (D through K) to levofloxacin, erythromycin, doxycycline, clarithromycin, and azithromycin was performed. All C. trachomatis serovars had comparable susceptibilities with respect to the various antimicrobials tested, thus confirming the homogeneous data so far obtained regarding the susceptibility of C. trachomatis to antimicrobial agents.
