Abstract
The in vitro activities of LY146032 and seven comparative antimicrobial agents against 14 species of staphylococci, streptococci, and enterococci were studied. MICs of LY146032 were less than or equal to 0.5 microgram/ml for all staphylococci, including oxacillin-resistant strains; less than or equal to 0.25 microgram/ml for all streptococci (except viridans group streptococci); and less than or equal to 4 micrograms/ml for all viridans group streptococci and enterococci. MICs were minimally affected by variations in inoculum size, and LY146032 was bactericidal against all species tested.
