>> Dear colleagues,
>> I've been concerned for some time about antibiotic resistance that may
> lurk in our laboratories. I conducted a quick ampicillin test last
> week, which showed resistance beyond 512 mgL-1 amp.
>> At which concentration would one be concerned about enhanced ampicillin
> resistance under such circumstances?
>> All help gratefully received.
