Abstract

6,042 strains of Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus faecalis, Proteus mirabilis, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella sp. and Pseudomonas sp. were tested against tobramycin and gentamicin. Among all species studies, except Pseudomonas sp, gentamicin turned out to be slightly superior to tobramycin.
