Abstract
The minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) of chloramphenicol for a clinical isolate of Haemophilus ducreyi, strain CEB-10, was 16 micrograms/ml. This strain was also resistant to tetracycline (MIC = 64 micrograms/ml) and ampicillin. The presence of a chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) activity was demonstrated.
