Antibiotic susceptibilities of recent isolates of Mycopasma bovis in Belgium
The susceptibilities of 40 recent Belgian field isolates of Mycoplasma bovis to 10 antimicrobial agentswere assessed. Tiamulin was the most active antimicrobial agent against M bovis , with an initialinhibitory concentration (IIC50) of 0-06 μg/ml, but it is not licensed for the treatment of cattle. All threefluoroquinolones tested (danofloxacin, enrofloxacin and marbofloxacin) were effective against strainsof M bovis , and had a minimum mycoplasmacidal concentration (MMC50) less than or equal to 1 μg/mI.Gentamicin was poorly effective, having an IIC50 of 8 μg/mI. Many strains of M bovis were r... Mehr ...

Many strains of M bovis were resistant totylosin, spectinomycin, lincomycin, tetracycline and oxytetracycline.
