  1. The minimum inhibitory concentrations of BWC0977 compared with gepotidacin and ciprofloxacin against drug-sensitive and multidrug-resistant (MDR) strains from ATCC. Values represent the mean of two independent experiments. E. coli BAA 2471, E. coli BAA 2469, K. pneumoniae BAA 2782, K. pneumoniae KPNIH1, P. aeruginosa BAA 2794, and P. aeruginosa BAA 2797 are resistant to ciprofloxacin and meropenem. K. pneumoniae BAA 2784 and A. baumannii BAA 2885 are resistant to ciprofloxacin, meropenem, and colistin.
