ofloxacin and Corynebacterium Infections

ofloxacin has been researched along with Corynebacterium Infections in 7 studies

Ofloxacin: A synthetic fluoroquinolone antibacterial agent that inhibits the supercoiling activity of bacterial DNA GYRASE, halting DNA REPLICATION.
9-fluoro-3-methyl-10-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)-7-oxo-2,3-dihydro-7H-[1,4]oxazino[2,3,4-ij]quinoline-6-carboxylic acid : An oxazinoquinoline that is 2,3-dihydro-7H-[1,4]oxazino[2,3,4-ij]quinolin-7-one substituted by methyl, carboxy, fluoro, and 4-methylpiperazin-1-yl groups at positions 3, 6, 9, and 10, respectively.
ofloxacin : A racemate comprising equimolar amounts of levofloxacin and dextrofloxacin. It is a synthetic fluoroquinolone antibacterial agent which inhibits the supercoiling activity of bacterial DNA gyrase, halting DNA replication.

Corynebacterium Infections: Infections with bacteria of the genus CORYNEBACTERIUM.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" Among quinolones, the most active agents are ciprofloxacin and ofloxacin (MIC modes: 4 and 2 mg/l), so these antimicrobials could be used for the treatment of urinary tract infections caused by Corynebacterium group D2."3.67[Corynebacterium group D2. Clinical study, biochemical identification and antibiotic sensitivity]. ( Cancet, B; Clave, D; Didier, J; Henry-Ferry, S; Marty, N, 1988)
"Encrusted cystitis is a type of severe cystitis, which progresses chronically and is characterized by excessively alkaline urine and calcifications within the bladder wall."1.32[Two cases of encrusted cystitis]. ( Arai, Y; Ichioka, K; Matsui, Y; Ohara, H; Terada, N; Terai, A; Yoshimura, K, 2004)
