In Vitro Activities of DA-7867, a Novel Oxazolidinone, against Recent Clinical Isolates of Aerobic and Anaerobic Bacteria

In vitro activities of DA-7867, a novel oxazolidinone, were compared to those of linezolid and commonly used antimicrobials. DA-7867 had the lowest MIC for 90% of the aerobic gram-positive bacterial strains tested, </=0.25 micro g/ml, and it was more potent than linezolid.
