The values are expressed in mg/L as median of minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) determined using Clinical and Laboratory Standard Institute (CLSI) protocol M27-A3. GM: geometrical mean of minimum inhibitory concentration. : lowest drug concentration that prevented 90% of growth with respect to the untreated control.
