Popis: Ceftolozane MIC 50 /MIC 90 s were 4/8 μg/ml when tested against 26 CTX-M-14-type-producing isolates and 64/>64 μg/ml against 219 CTX-M-15-type-producing isolates. The addition of 4 μg/ml tazobactam lowered the ceftolozane MIC 50 /MIC 90 s to ≤0.25/0.5 μg/ml by broth microdilution and Etest. The zone diameters for the ceftolozane-tazobactam disks were 23 to 29 mm for 92.2% of the isolates.
