چکیده
The in vitro activities of five quinolinecarboxylic acids against two laboratory strains of Chlamydia trachomatis were compared. The minimal inhibitory concentrations of nalidixic acid, cinoxacin, and pipemidic acid were all greater than or equal to 50 micrograms/ml; the activity of norfloxacin was intermediate (minimal inhibitory concentration, 8 to 16 micrograms/ml). Ciprofloxacin was the most active of these drugs (minimal inhibitory concentration, 0.5 to 1 microgram/ml).

Cross-resistance among cinoxacin, ciprofloxacin, DJ-6783, enoxacin, nalidixic acid, norfloxacin, and oxolinic acid after in vitro selection of resistant populations.
Six different gram-negative bacilli were serially transferred through subinhibitory concentrations of seven quinolone derivatives or related organic acids. A gradual, stepwise decrease in susceptibility was noted with all seven drugs, and the resistant cultures demonstrated a concomitant cross-resistance to the other drugs.
متن کاملDetermination of Quinolone Antibiotics in Bovine Liver Using Agilent Bond Elut QuEChERS Kits by LC/MS/MS
This paper presents an analytical method which allows the determination of 11 quinolone antibiotic residue in bovine liver: pipemidic acid, ofloxacin, ciprofloxacin, danofloxacin, lomefloxacin, enrofloxacin, sarafloxacin, cinoxacin, oxolinic acid, nalidixic acid, and flumequine. The procedure involves a rapid and efficient pretreatment by Bond Elut QuEChERS kits. The homogenized liver sample wa...
متن کاملIn vitro and in vivo activities of sparfloxacin, other quinolones, and tetracyclines against Chlamydia trachomatis.
Sparfloxacin was more potent than other quinolones (tosufloxacin, lomefloxacin, ciprofloxacin, ofloxacin, fleroxacin, enoxacin, and norfloxacin) and as potent as minocycline and doxycycline in activity against Chlamydia trachomatis in vitro and in vivo. Sparfloxacin was more bactericidal than minocycline against C. trachomatis D/UW-3/Cx.
متن کاملAntibacterial activity of norfloxacin.
Norfloxacin, a new quinoline derivative, was studied in vitro, and determinations of agar dilution minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) and broth dilution MICs and MBCs were made. Nalidixic acid and cinoxacin were used as comparative agents. Norfloxacin was found to be extremely active against all strains tested of Escherichia coli, Klebsiella spp., Proteus mirabilis, indole-positive Proteu...
متن کاملComparative in vitro activity of norfloxacin (MK-0366) and ten other oral antimicrobial agents against urinary bacterial isolates.
The in vitro activity of a new oral antimicrobial agent, norfloxacin (MK-0366), was compared with those of nalidixic acid, nitrofurantoin, co-trimoxazole, trimethoprim, sulfamethoxazole, cinoxacin, tetracycline, ampicillin, carbenicillin, and cephalexin against 628 urinary bacterial isolates. Norfloxacin was the most active antimicrobial agent tested against the gram-negative bacilli. It was le...
