Eight antibiotics (aztreonam, ceftazidim, cefoperazon, cefepim, netilmicin, amikacin, ofloxacin and ciprofloxacin) exhibited antimicrobial activity individually and/or in combinations against 20 wildtype biofilm-forming strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The strains were less susceptible in biofilm; in 10 strains antibiotic synergy was observed for the combination of aztreonam and ciprofloxacin. Synergy was also demonstrated in the case of beta-lactams and aminoglycosides, beta-lactams and fluoroquinolones, aminoglycosides and fluoroquinolones, and for monobactams and beta-lactams although the strains were resistant to the individual antibiotics. Synergism or partial synergism was found with one or more antibiotic combinations against 32.4 % of isolates.
