摘要
The MICs of erythromycin and three new macrolide antibiotics were determined for 36 quinolone-susceptible and 106 quinolone-resistant Campylobacter jejuni. The MIC90 values of azithromycin, clarithromycin, roxithromycin and erythromycin were 0.5, 4, 16 and 4 mg/l respectively. No difference was found between macrolide activity against the quinolone-susceptible and the quinolone-resistant strains. Clarithromycin and especially azithromycin might eventually replace erythromycin for the treatment of Campylobacter jejuni infections in view of their pharmacological properties.
