Defining the minimum inhibitory concentration of 22 rifamycins in iron limited, physiologic medium against Acinetobacter baumannii, Escherichia coli, and Klebsiella pneumoniae clinical isolates. [PDF]
Recently, we reported rifabutin hyper-activity against Acinetobacter baumannii. We sought to characterize if any additional rifamycins (n = 22) would also display hyper-activity when tested in iron-limited media against A. baumannii, K. pneumoniae, and E.

Biosynthesis of Rifamycins (Ansamycins) and Microbial Production of Shikimate Pathway Precursors, Intermediates, and Metabolites [PDF]
Is the elucidation of biosynthetic pathways of academic interest only, or are there enough valuable spin-offs to make biogenetic studies attractive for a research laboratory in a pharmaceutical company?

Antibiofilm and intraosteoblastic activities of rifamycins against Staphylococcus aureus: promising in vitro profile of rifabutin [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Targeting biofilm-embedded and intraosteoblastic Staphylococcus aureus, rifampicin gained a pivotal role in bone and joint infection (BJI) treatment. Two other rifamycins, rifabutin and rifapentine, may represent better-tolerated alternatives,
