In this study, two different amounts of zinc containing media were used, the first of which was Oxoid MHA containing 0.45 ?g/ml zinc, and the second Oxoid MHA supplemented with zinc-acetate, 64 times as much zinc as the first media. The percentage of P. aeruginosa isolates resistant to imipenem significantly increased (P < 0.001) in zinc-supplemented media, whereas the activity of ceftazidime against P. aeruginosa isolates was similar in both media.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessİmipenemP.
