Agar dilution antimicrobial susceptibility tests were carried out against recent clinical isolates ofYersinia enterocolitica biotype 4, serotype O:3. Aminoglycosides and co-trimoxazole were the most active drugs. All isolates were resistant to ampicillin, carbenicillin, cloxacillin, and erythromycin.
