Abstract

The in vitro activities of N-formimidoyl thienamycin alone and in combination with amikacin and gentamicin were tested against 10 strains of Streptococcus faecalis. Synergy was demonstrated in 35% of the combinations tested by the microtiter checkerboard technique; 50% were found to be synergistic with time killing curves.
