  • Title: In vitro study of dactimicin (ST 900) against methicillin-susceptible and -resistant staphylococci.
    Author: Stefani S, Mezzatesta M, Oliveri S, Nicolosi VM, Russo G.
    Journal: Chemioterapia; 1987 Aug; 6(4):264-8. PubMed ID: 3652276.
    Abstract:
    The current knowledge on the antimicrobial activity of dactimicin is poor and limited to the study of its activity against gram-negative bacilli. The new acquisition about the use of aminoglycoside antibiotics in infections due to Staphylococci, induced us to evaluate the behavior of this drug against methicillin-susceptible and -resistant Staphylococci, in comparison with fortimicin A and amikacin. Dactimicin (ST 900) shows good antibacterial activity and a strong bactericidal effect at MIC concentrations in all strains tested.
