Evaluation of the Bactericidal Activity of Fosfomycin in Combination with Selected Antimicrobial Comparison Agents Tested against Gram-Negative Bacterial Strains by Using Time-Kill Curves

The effects of combining fosfomycin with various antimicrobial agents were evaluated in vitro by broth microdilution checkerboard and time-kill kinetic studies. Checkerboard analyses were used to evaluate the following 30 Gram-negative isolates: 5 Pseudomonas aeruginosa , 5 Acinetobacter baumannii - Acinetobacter calcoaceticus species complex, and 20 Enterobacteriaceae isolates.
