Figure 1 Scattergrams comparing the BMS284756 MIC with the zone of inhibition around a 5-μg disk when testing: (a) Pseudomonas aeruginosa (129 strains); (b) Acinetobacter spp., 43 strains; and (c) Stenotrophomonas/Burkholderia spp., 97 strains. Vertical broken lines indicate preliminary zone diameter breakpoint criteria correlating with the proposed ≤4 mg/L MIC indicating susceptibility [7].
