摘要
The in vitro activity of the fluoroquinolone BAY 12-8039 against 66 strains of different mycoplasma species and 30 strains of Ureaplasma urealyticum was compared with those of three other antimicrobial agents. BAY 12-8039 at 0.5 mu g/ml inhibited 100% of all the mycoplasmal and ureaplasmal strains tested. The minimal bactericidal concentrations of BAY 12-8039 increased only two-to eightfold compared to the MICs. Furthermore, they were comparable to those of sparfloxacin and lower than those of doxycycline and clarithromycin.
