title: In vitro activity of chlorhydroxyquinoline against mycoplasma species.
abstract: The in vitro activities of 5-chloro-8-hydroxyquinoline (CHQ) against single strains of 12 different species of mycoplasma and the impacts of repeated exposure of these strains to CHQ on their susceptibility to this agent have been studied. On initial exposure, the minimal inhibitory concentrations for these strains ranged from 0.24 to 1.92 micrograms of CHQ per ml of test medium; activities remained unchanged during 10 serial transfers in CHQ-containing medium.
