antimicrobials were chosen from the main antimicrobial drugs used in clinical and surgical routine, and were the following: ampicillin (10 μg), ampicillin with sulbactam (20 μg), amoxicillin (20 μg), amoxicillin with clavulanic acid (10 μg), gentamicin (10 μg
testing Antibiotic susceptibility testing was performed by E-test (BioMérieux), as described previously [ 16 ]. Seventeen antimicrobial agents, ampicillin, amoxicillin-clavulanic acid, cefotaxime, ceftriaxone, cefepime, imipenem, clarithromycin, gentamicin
. The antibiotic disks (Mast Group, Merseyside, UK) used in our study were as follows: ampicillin (10 μg), cefoxitin (30 μg), ceftazidime (30 μg), ceftazidime-clavulanate (10/10 μg), cefotaxime (30 μg), cefotaxime-clavulanate (10/30 μg), cefuroxime (30
), clindamycin (2 µg), vancomycin (30 µg), ampicillin (30 µg), chloramphenicol (30 µg), tetracycline (30 µg), cefotixin (30 µg), rifampicin (5 µg), and oxacillin (1 µg) were used. The breakpoints of Staphylococcus and Enterococcus species resistance were used
penicillins (ampicillin, ampicillin-sulbactam, oxacillin, and piperacillin–tazobactam), cephalosporins (3rd and 4th generation cephalosporins, as well as cefuroxime and cefoxitin), the carbapenem imipenem, fluoroquinolones (norfloxacin, ciprofloxacin
