Mecillinam activity against multidrug-resistant Shigella sonnei and Shigella flexneri

ABSTRACT We performed phenotypic susceptibility testing and whole-genome sequencing to investigate in vitro mecillinam activity against multidrug-resistant (MDR) Shigella. Ninety-five isolates (53 [56%] Shigella sonnei and 42 [44%] Shigella flexneri) were included. The MIC50 and MIC90 were 1 and 2 µ...
