ScholarBank@NUS Repository. https://doi.org/10.1017/S0950268808000745 | Abstract: | Two hundred and four Salmonella enterica serotype Typhi (S. Typhi) isolates were collected from seven Asian countries during 2002-2004. Multidrug-resistant S. Typhi (resistant to ≥3 antibiotics) was detected in 84 (41.2%) isolates and 142 (69.6%) showed reduced susceptibility to ciprofloxacin (minimum inhibitory concentration = 0.125-1.0 mg/l). This study highlights the worsening situation of antimicrobial resistance of S. Typhi in Asia. © 2008 Cambridge University Press. | Source Title: | Epidemiology and Infection | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/130020 | ISSN: | 09502688 | DOI: | 10.1017/S0950268808000745 |
