Eravacycline (formerly TP-434) was evaluated in vitro against pre-established biofilms formed by a uropathogenic Escherichia coli strain. Biofilms were eradicated by 0.5 μg/ml eravacycline, which was within 2-fold of the MIC for planktonic cells. In contrast, colistin and meropenem disrupted biofilms at 32 and 2 μg/ml, respectively, concentrations well above their respective MICs of 0.5 and 0.03 μg/ml. Gentamicin and levofloxacin eradicated biofilms at concentrations within 2-fold of their MICs.
对依拉环素(原TP - 434)进行了体外评估,以检测其对由一种尿路致病性大肠杆菌菌株形成的预先建立的生物膜的作用。0.5μg/ml的依拉环素可根除生物膜,该浓度在浮游细胞最低抑菌浓度(MIC)的2倍范围内。相比之下,黏菌素和美罗培南分别在32μg/ml和2μg/ml时破坏生物膜,这些浓度远高于它们各自0.5μg/ml和0.03μg/ml的MIC。庆大霉素和左氧氟沙星在其MIC的2倍范围内的浓度时可根除生物膜。
