نویسنده
چکیده
The in vitro antibacterial activity of generic vancomycin was compared with that of Vancocin (vancomycin hydrochloride; Eli Lilly & Co.) using macrotube dilution testing and subculture. There were no significant differences in MICs or MBCs of the two drugs when tested against a variety of recently isolated hospital pathogens.
