Biological Activity
Difloxacin (24-48 h) hydrochloride inhibits and eliminates the field strain of E. coli O78 in vitro with an MIC of 0.02 µg/mL and an MBC of 0.04 µg/mL[1].
Difloxacin (0.04-12.5 µg/mL) hydrochloride exhibits 3.99% protein binding in normal chicken serum in vitro[1].
Difloxacin hydrochloride exhibits broad-spectrum in vitro antibacterial activity against clinical isolates of gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pyogenes, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Streptococcus faecalis) and gram-negative (Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Salmonella typhimurium, Proteus mirabilis, Proteus vulgaris, Serratia marcescens, Providencia stuartii, Pseudomonas aeruginosa) bacteria[2].
Difloxacin (1-25 μg/mL; 72 h) hydrochloride dose-dependently and reversibly inhibits ConA-induced proliferation of human peripheral blood mononuclear cells, with maximum inhibition when added within the first 24 h of culture, 92% cell viability at 25 μg/mL, and no reversal of inhibition with increased mitogen concentration[3].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
Difloxacin (administered via subcutaneous injection or oral route; twice daily; at 1 h and 5 h post-infection) hydrochloride exhibits an ED50 of 1.7 mg/kg per day for subcutaneous administration and 3.2 mg/kg per day for oral administration against lethal *Staphylococcus aureus* 10649 infection in CF-1 mice[2].
