N2 - The susceptibilities of 159 clinical isolates of glucose nonfermentative gram-negative bacilli were determined for eight new monobactam or β-lactam antibiotics. Imipemide (N-formimidoyl thienamcyin) was effective against the largest number of species, although not against Pseudomonas maltophilia. Cefoperazone and ceftazidime, but not cefsulodin, were active against infrequently isolated Pseudomonas species. Aztreonam, moxalactam, cefotaxime, and ceftizoxime demonstrated selective activity against several species, including certain aminoglycoside-resistant isolates.
