Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To investigate the resistance in clinical isolates of Stenotrophomonas maltophilia to antimicrobial agents. METHODS Susceptibility of 48 S. maltophilia isolates were tested by agar dilution or K-B method. RESULTS The lowest resistance rate of isolates to the antimicrobial agents was to ticarcillin/clavulanic acid (12.5%),then to minocycline (25.0%) and trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole (31.3%). The resistance rate to ceftazidime,ceftazidime/sulbactam,levofloxacin,and chloramphenicol was 62.5%,52.1%,52.1%,and 50.0%,respectively. CONCLUSIONS Most of S. maltophilia isolates are susceptible to ticarcillin/clavulanic acid,minocycline,trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole and resistant to other antimicrobial agents. More mornitoring should be enhanced.
