Abstract
ABSTRACT
The activity of mecillinam (amdinocillin) was assessed in Enterobacterales (n = 420) isolated from urine samples between 2016 and 2017. Mecillinam susceptibilities were 97.4% in Escherichia coli isolates (294/302), 89.7% in Klebsiella spp. isolates (52/58), and 93.3% in Proteus mirabilis isolates (28/30). Among extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) producers, 95.2% (99/104) were mecillinam susceptible, including two OXA-48-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates. In Enterobacter spp. and Citrobacter spp., MICs were low (MIC50 = 0.5 mg/liter). In conclusion, the activity of mecillinam was high in Enterobacterales, even among multidrug-resistant isolates.
