Bactericidal activity of the fluoroquinolone DU-6859a alone and in combination with other antimicrobial agents against multiresistant enterococci.

Diagnostic microbiology and infectious disease - 1 Oct 1996

Korten V, Erdem I, Murray B E

Abstract excerpt

The in vitro activity of DU-6859a (DU) alone and in combination with various antimicrobials was evaluated against multiresistant enterococci including some isolates with defined gyrA mutations. DU produced rapid in vitro killing against most enterococci that lacked resistance to ciprofloxacin, but it was not bactericidal against strains with MICs of ciprofloxacin of > or = 8 micrograms/ml, or against one of four...
