Abstract
:
The antimicrobial activity of 10 antibiotics against 42 Group A Neisseria meningitidis strains beta-lactamase non-producing was determined using the disc diffusion method and dilution technique. All isolates were susceptible by the DDM to penicillin, ampicillin, cefuroxime, ceftriaxone, cefotaxime, chloramphenicol ciprofloxacin, and rifampicin. Thirty-two (76%) were resistant to sulphamethoxazole and trimethoprime/sulphamethoxazole. MICs of the isolates showed that ceftriaxone, cefuroxime, and cefotaxime had greater inhibitory activities than penicillin or rifampicin.
