  1. (≤2 ≥4)* = MIC (minimum inhibitory concentration) = Critical concentrations in μg/ml (critical concentration of susceptibility, critical concentration of resistance), according to the recommendations of MENSURA to the interpretation of antibiogram.
  2. - f * = Unknown, we do not know the mechanisms of resistance, or the measure for resistance.
