Abstract
One hundred recent clinical isolates of
Campylobacter fetus
subsp.
jejuni
were tested by an agar dilution technique for susceptibility to each of 20 antimicrobial agents. Doxycycline and gentamicin were the most active of the drugs examined, inhibiting all strains at concentrations achievable in serum. Although the median minimal inhibitory concentration of erythromycin was low, 8% of the isolates were highly resistant. All isolates of
Campylobacter fetus
subsp.
jejuni
were relatively resistant to the β-lactam antibiotics. Some strains were highly resistant to metronidazole and tinidazole.
