Question

Is S. epidermis resistant, an intermediate or susceptible to gentamicin, novobiacin & penicllin?

Answer 1

The reason you aren't getting very many responses is that your question is impercise.

S. Epidermis is a species of bacteria. As such there are members of the species that are resistant, intermediately resistant and susceptible to any and all of the bacteria.

Generally, most S. Epidermis bacteria are susceptible to all of the list antibiotics, but if the host has been exposed to multiple courses of antibiotics they can have a form that is resistent to all of the antibiotics listed.
