Abstract
Thirty-four isolates of Pseudomonas pseudomallei were tested by a broth microdilution technique for susceptibility to amifloxacin, ciprofloxacin, enoxacin, norfloxacin, and ofloxacin. Ciprofloxacin was the most active agent tested, with an MIC for 90% of the strains tested of 8 micrograms/ml. These in vitro results suggest that the fluoroquinolones tested would not be optimal for therapy of melioidosis.
