Abstract
ABSTRACT
A total of 105 isolates of
Mycoplasma pneumoniae
were evaluated for susceptibility to moxifloxacin, sparfloxacin, levofloxacin, and ciprofloxacin. Moxifloxacin, a newly synthesized compound, showed the greatest activity. The MICs and MBCs at which 50 and 90% of isolates were affected were 0.15 (MIC
50
and MBC
50
) and 0.3 μg/ml (MIC
90
and MBC
90
) respectively. The results indicate that moxifloxacin might be promising an antimycoplasmal agent.
