Comparative in-vitro activities of RP59500 (quinupristin/dalfopristin), CL 329,998, CL 331,002, trovafloxacin, clinafloxacin, teicoplanin and vancomycin against Gram-positive bacteria. The Journal of antimicrobial chemotherapy, 1997, Volume: 39, Issue:3 The in-vitro activities of five investigational antibiotics, RP59500 (a semisynthetic injectable streptogramin), CL 329,998 and CL 331,002 (two new glycylcyclines), trovafloxacin (a naphthyridone), and clinafloxacin (a dihalogenated quinolone), were examined and compared with those of minocycline, teicoplanin and vancomycin against 190 clinical isolates of Gram-positive cocci. The MICs for RP59500 against all isolates with the exception of Enterococcus faecalis were low. RP59500 was bactericidal against all except enterococcal isolates. CL 329,998 and CL 331,002 were significantly more active than minocycline against oxacillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MIC90 0.25 versus 8 mg/L) and all enterococcal isolates (MIC90 0.125 versus 16 mg/L). Clinafloxacin was the most active agent against all staphylococcal isolates and was bactericidal. Trovafloxacin showed good activity against oxacillin-susceptible staphylococci and alpha-haemolytic streptococci (MIC90 < or = 0.125 mg/L). This study demonstrates the potential of the five investigational antibiotics as therapeutic agents for infections caused by Gram-positive cocci. Topics: Anti-Bacterial Agents; Anti-Infective Agents; Fluoroquinolones; Gram-Positive Bacteria; Microbial Sensitivity Tests; Minocycline; Naphthyridines; Quinolones; Teicoplanin; Tetracyclines; Vancomycin; Virginiamycin	1997
In vitro antimicrobial susceptibility of glycopeptide-resistant enterococci. Diagnostic microbiology and infectious disease, 1995, Volume: 21, Issue:1 The results of susceptibility testing of 48 phenotyped strains of glycopeptide antibiotic-resistant enterococci are reported. Minimum inhibitory and bactericidal concentrations (MICs and MBCs) were determined for 27 vanA, 17 vanB, and 4 vanC strains. Antibiotics exhibiting the greatest activity included novobiocin (MIC90 = 8 micrograms/ml and MBC90 = 32 micrograms/ml), ramoplanin (MIC90 = 2 micrograms/ml and MBC90 = 4 micrograms/ml), and the streptogramin RP59500 (MIC90 = 4 micrograms/ml and MBC90 = 32 micrograms/ml). These antibiotics warrant further investigation as potentially useful agents, either alone or in combination, for treating enterococcal infections. Topics: Anti-Bacterial Agents; Anti-Infective Agents; Ciprofloxacin; Depsipeptides; Drug Resistance, Microbial; Enterococcus; Fluoroquinolones; Fusidic Acid; Microbial Sensitivity Tests; Minocycline; Naphthyridines; Novobiocin; Peptides, Cyclic; Quinolones; Teicoplanin; Vancomycin; Virginiamycin	1995
