  • Title: The activity of ciprofloxacin and other 4-quinolones against Chlamydia trachomatis and Mycoplasmas in vitro.
    Author: Ridgway GL, Mumtaz G, Gabriel FG, Oriel JD.
    Journal: Eur J Clin Microbiol; 1984 Aug; 3(4):344-6. PubMed ID: 6237903.
    Abstract:
    Ciprofloxacin was found to be the most active of a group of 4-quinolone antibiotics tested against the SA2f strain of Chlamydia trachomatis (MBC and MIC 1.0 mg/l). Against genital isolates of Chlamydia trachomatis, ciprofloxacin was twice as active as rosoxacin. Ciprofloxacin showed similar activity to that of oxytetracycline against clinical isolates of Mycoplasma hominis and Ureaplasma urealyticum, and was 8-fold more active than rosoxacin against the latter.
