| Abstract: | We have evaluated the in vitro activities of seven fluoroquinolones against 69 strains of Brucella melitensis . According to their minimum inhibitory concentration for 90% growth (MIC90) values, the most active agent was found to be sparfloxacin (MIC90 0.12 mg/L) followed by levofloxacin, ciprofloxacin, ofloxacin (MIC90 0.50 mg/L) and grepafloxacin (MIC90 1 mg/L), gemifloxacin (MIC90 2 mg/L) and gatifloxacin (MIC90 4 mg/L). |
