Evaluation of arbekacin anti-MRSA agents for adult in Japan.

The Japanese journal of antibiotics, 2012
There are a limited number of reports that compare the clinical efficacy of anti-MRSA agents such as arbekacin (ABK), vancomycin (VCM), teicoplanin (TEIC) and linezolid (LZD). There is a tendency for these four agents to show variation in the inflammatory response parameters, in C-reactive protein (CRP) and in white blood cell count (WBC), depending on

Studies for the Development of Novel Anti-MRSA/VRE Drugs

YAKUGAKU ZASSHI, 2012
The widespread emergence of multidrug-resistant Gram-positive pathogens such as methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) is a high threat for human health. In the course of screening for active compounds against the above drug-resistant bacteria from microbial metabolites, we discovered three kinds ...
