Oritavancin Activity Tested against Molecularly Characterized Staphylococci and Enterococci Displaying Elevated Linezolid MIC Results Rodrigo E. Mendes, David J. Farrell, Helio S. Sader, Robert K. Flamm, Ronald N. Jones JMI Laboratories, North Liberty, Iowa, USA
Oritavancin (MIC50/90, 0.03/0.06 to 0.12 g/ml) had potent activity against linezolid-resistant staphylococci, as well as Enterococcus faecalis and Enterococcus faecium (oritavancin MIC50/90, 0.015/0.12 g/ml against both species). All linezolid-resistant isolates were inhibited by oritavancin at
