The in vitro activities of five new quinoline-carboxylic acids against 2 reference strains and 45 clinical isolates of Chlamydia trachomatis of genital origin were compared with the activities of minocycline and doxycycline. Ofloxacin was the third most active agent (after the two tetracyclines), followed by ciprofloxacin, NY-198, and AM-833.

The in vitro activities of three newly developed quinolone drugs (T-3262, NY-198, and fleroxacin [AM-833; RO 23-6240]) against 10 strains of clinically isolated Chlamydia trachomatis were assessed and compared with those of other quinolones and minocycline. T-3262 (MIC for 90% of isolates tested, 0.1 microgram/ml) was the most active of the quinolones. The NY-198 and fleroxacin MICs for 90% of ...

background fenton (fe2+ and h2o2) and modified fenton (fe3+ and h2o2) are two popular methods used in advanced oxidation processes (aop) and degradation of persistent organic pollutants (pops), such as dye compounds. in these processes, fe2+ and fe3+ as catalysts and h2o2 as the oxidizing agent are added to the reactor. objectives the aim of the current study is to assess the abovementioned met...

background: colors make many problems and these are major sources of environmental pollution. therefore, this wastewater should be treated before discharge to environment to reduce the environmental threats. adsorption is one of the usual processes for color removal from wastewater. nanotube s are new adsorbents with extend application for adsorption of different compounds. aim of this study wa...
