title: In vitro activities of lomefloxacin and temafloxacin against pathogens causing diarrhea.
abstract: The in vitro activities of temafloxacin (A63004) and lomefloxacin (SC-47111; NY-198) were compared with those of seven other antibiotics against 146 isolates of bacterial enteric pathogens, including Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli. Ciprofloxacin was the most active drug against the Salmonella, Shigella, Yersinia, and Vibrio spp. tested. Lomefloxacin, temafloxacin, and difloxacin were the most active drugs tested against Campylobacter spp. (MIC for 90% of strains, 0.125 to 0.25 micrograms/ml).
