In the article "Antibiotic Resistance Among Nasopharyngeal
Isolates of Streptococcus pneumoniae and Haemophilus influenzae --
Bangui, Central African Republic, 1995," on page 63, a line of text

ampicillin, and 12.3% were resistant to cotrimoxazole; no
B-lactamase was detected in the single ampicillin-resistant
isolate. The rate of SP resistance to chloramphenicol was 9.2%, and
no HI isolates were resistant to chloramphenicol."
