Broth Microdilution Susceptibility Testing forLeptospiraspp [PDF]

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2004
ABSTRACTLeptospirosis in humans has traditionally been treated with penicillin or doxycycline. The choice of therapy offered at the time of initial patient presentation is often empirical, as definitive diagnosis can take weeks. Determining the activity of numerous antimicrobial agents against a wide range ofLeptospiraserovars may broaden empirical ...
