ABSTRACT
The in vitro antibacterial activity of ciprofloxacin, a new quinoline carboxylic acid, was tested against 1671 recently clinically isolated bacterial strains, by measuring the minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC). Comparisons were made with other quinolones nalidixic acid, norfloxacin, and other drugs piperacillin, cefoxitin, cefotetan, ceftazidime, tobramycin, rifampin, tetracycline, chloramphenicol. Ciprofloxacin was very active against the tested species and was the most active drug against all the bacterial strains, with a geometric mean, a MIC50 and MIC90 of 0.27, 0.12 and 2 micrograms/ml, respectively.
