| Bioactivity | Besifloxacin hydrochloride is a fourth-generation fluoroquinolone antibiotic. IC50 Value:Target: AntibacterialBesifloxacin has been found to inhibit production of pro-inflammatory cytokines in vitro. Besifloxacin is a novel 8-chloro-fluoroquinolone agent with potent, bactericidal activity against prevalent and drug-resistant pathogens.besifloxacin is the most potent agent tested against gram-positive pathogens and anaerobes and is generally equivalent to comparator fluoroquinolones in activity against most gram-negative pathogens. Besifloxacin demonstrates potent, broad-spectrum activity, which is particularly notable against gram-positive and gram-negative isolates that are resistant to other fluoroquinolones and classes of antibacterial agents. |
