Abstract
Daptomycin inhibited 67 of 70 clinical isolates of Bacillus species at < or =1 microg/ml and 100% of them at < or =2 microg/ml. It showed bactericidal activity similar to that of ciprofloxacin against vegetative cells but not against spores. For 2 strains, the ciprofloxacin MICs were >4 g/ml, and 10 strains were resistant to erythromycin.Entities:
