Abstract
ABSTRACT
The antimicrobial activities of garenoxacin and eight other antibiotics against 641 anaerobic isolates were evaluated with the NCCLS agar dilution method. Overall, the MICs of garenoxacin for 50 and 90% of the strains tested (in micrograms per milliliter) were as follows:
Bacteroides fragilis
group, 0.5 and 2;
Prevotella
spp., 0.25 and 2;
Fusobacterium
spp., 0.25 and 0.5;
Porphyromonas
spp., 0.125 and 0.25;
Bilophila wadsworthia
, 0.5 and 1;
Veillonella
spp., 0.25 and 0.5;
Clostridium
spp., 0.25 and 1;
Clostridium difficile
, 2 and >64;
Bifidobacterium
spp., 1 and 2;
Eggerthella lenta
, 0.25 and 1;
Propionibacterium
spp., 0.5 and 0.5; gram-positive cocci, 0.125 and 0.25.
