In vitro activities of ofloxacin and four other new quinoline-carboxylic acids against Chlamydia trachomatis
Abstract
The in vitro activities of five new quinoline-carboxylic acids against 2 reference strains and 45 clinical isolates of Chlamydia trachomatis of genital origin were compared with the activities of minocycline and doxycycline. Ofloxacin was the third most active agent (after the two tetracyclines), followed by ciprofloxacin, NY-198, and AM-833.
