Of 7898 non-fermentative gram-negative bacilli isolated from various clinical materials, there were 7526 Pseudomonas, 273 Alcaligene faecalis, 93 Acinetobacter and 6 Flavobacterium. Most were found in urine and pus cultures; they were also isolated from sputum, blood and CSF. Gentamicin was the most effective antibiotic in vitro; 54% of Pseudomonas, 100% of Acinetobacter and 70% of Alcaligenes faecalis were inhibited by tobramycin.
