Antistaphylococcal activity of WCK 771, a tricyclic fluoroquinolone, in animal infection models.
WCK 771, the arginine salt of S-(-)-nadifloxacin, was evaluated in animal models of staphylococcal infection and in vitro. For 302 methicillin-susceptible strains the MIC at which 50% of isolates are inhibited (MIC50) and the MIC90 of WCK 771 were 0.03 and 0.03 microg/ml, respectively, and for 198 methicillin-resistant strains the MIC50 and the MIC90 were 0.5 and 1.0 microg/ml, respectively. Al...
متن کاملAntianaerobic activity of a novel fluoroquinolone, WCK 771, compared to those of nine other agents.
Agar dilution MIC methodology was used to compare the activity of WCK 771 with those of ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin, moxifloxacin, gatifloxacin, piperacillin, piperacillin-tazobactam, imipenem, clindamycin, and metronidazole against 350 anaerobes. Overall, the MICs (in micrograms per milliliter) at which 50 and 90%, respectively, of the isolates tested were inhibited were as follows: WCK 771, 0...

A sensitive, simple, specific, precise, accurate and rugged method for the assay and determination of enantiomeric purity of S-(-)-9-fluoro-6,7-dihydro-8-(4-hydroxypiperidin-1-yl)-5-methyl-1-oxo-1H,5H-benzo[i,j]quinolizine-2-carboxylic acid L-arginine salt tetrahydrate (WCK 771) in bulk drug has been developed. The method is RP-HPLC using endcapped C-18 stationary phase and chiral mobile phase....
متن کاملActivity of the new quinolones WCK 771, WCK 1152 and WCK 1153 against clinical isolates of Streptococcus pneumoniae and Streptococcus pyogenes.
OBJECTIVES AND METHODS The new fluoroquinolones WCK 771, WCK 1152 and WCK 1153 were developed to overcome quinolone resistance in Gram-positive bacteria. The activity of these new quinolones was tested against 159 clinical isolates of Streptococcus pneumoniae and 52 clinical isolates of Streptococcus pyogenes using the microbroth dilution method. RESULTS MIC50/MIC90 values (mg/L) of WCK 771, ...
متن کاملSimple liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method for determination of novel anti-methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus fluoroquinolone WCK 771 in human serum.
A simple, rapid, specific, precise, accurate and sensitive method for determination of WCK 771 in human serum has been developed. The method uses high performance liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometric detection. Sample preparation involves protein precipitation method by addition of acetonitrile. Gatifloxacin was used as internal standard. The response was found to be linear from...
