In vitro activity of a new cyclic lipopeptide antibiotic, LY146032, against gram-positive clinical bacteria
Abstract
The in vitro activity of LY146032, a novel cyclic lipopeptide antibiotic, was tested against different gram-positive clinical isolates. The activity of LY146032 was clearly higher than that of vancomycin against all isolates tested. However, in some instances rifampin and imipenem showed higher activity than did LY146032.
