Characterization of bactericidal activity of clindamycin against Bacteroides fragilis via kill curve methods.

Klepser, M E
RESUMO
Kill curves were determined for five isolates of Bacteroides fragilis with clindamycin at concentrations equal to the MIC or to 4, 16, and 64 times the MIC. Examination of plots of log CFU per milliliter versus time revealed no association between the clindamycin concentration and the rate and extent of the bactericidal activity against B. fragilis at or below 64 times the MIC.
