In vitro activity of LY146032, a new lipopeptide antibiotic, against gram-positive cocci
Abstract
The activity of LY146032, a new lipopeptide antibiotic, was compared in vitro with those of vancomycin, oxacillin, and ampicillin against 261 staphylococcal and 154 streptococcal isolates. The MICs of LY146032 and vancomycin were similar, but the bactericidal activity and killing kinetics of LY146032 were more pronounced.
