Tigecycline efflux as a mechanism for nonsusceptibility in acinetobacter baumannii [PDF]
Tigecycline has an extended spectrum of in vitro antimicrobial activities, including that against multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter. After identifying bloodstream isolates of Acinetobacter with reduced susceptibilities to tigecycline, we performed a ...
