In vitro activity of OPT-80 tested against clinical isolates of toxin-producing Clostridium difficile.

James A Karlowsky1, Nancy M Laing, George G Zhanel.   

Abstract

Agar dilution antimicrobial susceptibility testing (CLSI, M11-A7, 2007) performed for 208 toxin-producing clinical isolates of Clostridium difficile resulted in OPT-80 MICs ranging from 0.06 to 1 microg/ml, with 90% of the isolates inhibited by a concentration of 0.5 microg/ml. The in vitro activity of OPT-80 was independent of the susceptibilities of isolates to nine other antimicrobial agents.
