  • Title: Evaluation of ciprofloxacin as a representative of veterinary fluoroquinolones in susceptibility testing.
    Author: Riddle C, Lemons CL, Papich MG, Altier C.
    Journal: J Clin Microbiol; 2000 Apr; 38(4):1636-7. PubMed ID: 10747156.
    Abstract:
    Currently in veterinary medicine, ciprofloxacin is often used in susceptibility testing to represent the entire class of fluoroquinolone antimicrobials. Using quality control organisms as well as clinical isolates, we compared the MIC of ciprofloxacin to those of three other fluoroquinolones used in animals and found that ciprofloxacin is not an adequate representative of other members of this class.
