Title: In vitro activities of the new ketolide antibiotics HMR 3004 and HMR 3647 against Streptococcus pneumoniae in Germany. Author: Reinert RR, Bryskier A, Lütticken R. Journal: Antimicrob Agents Chemother; 1998 Jun; 42(6):1509-11. PubMed ID: 9624505. Abstract: The comparative in vitro activity of HMR 3004 and HMR 3647, new ketolide antibiotics, was tested by a standard agar dilution technique against 221 pneumococcal strains, including isolates with intermediate levels of resistance to penicillin and erythromycin-resistant isolates. The ketolides were more active than other macrolides and showed excellent activity against erythromycin-resistant strains. All the strains were inhibited by < or = 2 micrograms of HMR 3004/ml or by < or = 0.5 microgram of HMR 3647/ml.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
