چکیده
The in vitro activities of four fluoroquinolone compounds were tested against 92 Escherichia coli strains of ovine and caprine origin under aerobic and anaerobic incubation conditions. The four fluoroquinolones proved to be highly effective against the E. coli isolates tested. When bacteria were cultured anaerobically, at least fourfold increases in the MICs of enoxacin for the strains occurred and no detectable changes in enrofloxacin, sparfloxacin, and ciprofloxacin MICs occurred.

In vitro activities of cephalosporins and quinolones against Escherichia coli strains isolated from diarrheic dairy calves.
The in vitro activities of several cephalosporins and quinolones against 195 strains of Escherichia coli isolated from diary calves affected by neonatal diarrhea were determined. One hundred thirty-seven of these strains produced one or more potential virulence factors (F5, F41, F17, cytotoxic necrotizing factor, verotoxin, and the eae gene), but the remaining 58 strains did not produce any of ...
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.

In this study, 90 internal organ samples of poultry with symptoms of colibacillosis were obtained from Maragheh poultry farms in East Azerbaijan, Iran. In total, 70 bacterial isolates were confirmed as Escherichia coli (E. coli) strains using standard biochemical tests, and antibiotic sensitivity was determined by the disk diffusion method. Antibiotics used in this study included ampicillin, pe...
متن کاملComparative in vitro activities of enrofloxacin, ciprofloxacin and marbofloxacin against Staphylococcus intermedius isolated from dogs
Fifty strains of Staphylococcus intermedius were isolated from different pathological specimens originating from dogs during a six-month period. Antimicrobial susceptibility patterns against three fluoroquinolones were obtained on 50 Staphylococcus intermedius strains. In vitro antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed employing the disk diffusion method (Kirby-Bauer). The sensitivity ...
متن کاملComparative in vitro antibacterial activity of sparfloxacin (AT-4140; RP 64206), a new quinolone.
The in vitro activity of sparfloxacin (AT-4140; RP 64206), a new fluoroquinolone, was compared with those of 10 other agents against 1,222 clinical isolates. Sparfloxacin and ciprofloxacin were the most active quinolones against members of the family Enterobacteriaceae and nonfermenting gram-negative bacilli; sparfloxacin had superior activity against gram-positive cocci in comparison with the ...
