Abstract
The in vitro activity of cefmetazole versus that of other antimicrobial drugs was assessed against 374 clinical isolates of Bacteroides spp., Clostridium spp., and anaerobic gram-positive cocci. Compared with cefoxitin, cefmetazole showed good activity against Bacteroides fragilis, other Bacteroides species, and anaerobic cocci. It was somewhat less active than cefoxitin against Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron, B. ovatus, B. distasonis, and B. vulgatus and somewhat more active against Clostridium spp.
