Cefoxitin Resistance to Beta-Lactamase: a Major Factor for Susceptibility of Bacteroides fragilis to the Antibiotic

Toluene-treated cell suspensions of Bacteroides fragilis were used to screen clinical isolates for the production of β-lactamase. Approximately one-third of the isolates possessed considerable cephalosporinase activity. A significant correlation was found between β-lactamase production and resistanc...
