Biological Activity
|
Quinolone |
Delafloxacin (2.5, 10, 40, and 160 mg/kg; subcutaneous injection, 24 h) has moderate terminal elimination half-life (t1/2=0.68 h, 0.79 h, 0.69 h and 1.0 h for 2.5 mg/kg, 10 mg/kg, 40 mg/kg, and 160 mg/kg, respectively)[1].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
-
Animal Model:Mice with a neutropenic murine lung infection model (four S. aureus , four S. pneumoniae, and four K. pneumoniae strains)[1]
-
Dosage:The total daily doses vary from 0.156 to 640 mg/kg/24 h
-
Administration:0.03 to 160 mg/kg are administered every 6 h (q6h) to infected mice by subcutaneous injection
-
Result:Inhibited S. aureus strains ATCC 29213, ATCC 33591, MW2, R2527 with MICs of 0.008, 0.008, 0.004, and 0.004 mg/L, respectively.
Inhibited S. pneumoniae strains ATCC 10813, ATCC 49619, 145, and 1329 with MICs of 0.03, 0.125, 0.016, and 0.016 mg/L, respectively.
Inhibited K. pneumonia strains ATCC 43816, 4105, 4110, and 81-1260A with MICs of 0.06, 1, 0.5, and 0.06 mg/L, respectively.

-
Dosage:2.5, 10, 40, and 160 mg/kg; 0.2 mL
-
Administration:Subcutaneous injection; 24 h
-
Result:The maximum drug concentrations (Cmax) concentrations ranged from 2 to 71 mg/L. AUC0-∞ values ranged from 2.8 to 152 mg•h/L and were linear across the 2.5- to 160-mg dosing range. The elimination half-life (t1/2) ranged from 0.7 to 1 h.
