  1. 1R: Resistant; I: Intermediate; S: Sensitive; AMP: Ampicillin; AMS: ampicillin/sulbactam; CFZ: cefazolin; CAZ: ceftazidime; FEP: cefepime; AZM: aztreonam; AMI: amikacin; GEN: gentamicin; STR: streptomycin; CIP: ciprofloxacin; LEV: levofloxacin; IMI: imipenem; MEM: meropenem; TET: tetracycline; DOX: doxycycline; CHL: chloramphenicol; SUL: sulphonamides; SXT: trimethoprim–sulfamethoxazole; AZI: azithromycin
  2. 2 Most breakpoints for defining susceptibility (µg/mL) are based on the CLSI M45-A3 standards for Vibrio spp. The breakpoints of AZM and DOX are based on the CLSI M100-ED33 criteria for the Enterobacteriaceae family. The breakpoint of AZI (S ≤ 2) is based on the CLSI M45-A3 standards for V. cholerae. The breakpoint of STR (S ≤ 4, I = 8, R ≥ 16) is based on the CLSI M45-A3 standards for Yersinia pestis
