A comparison of the in vitro activity of two antibiotics against bovine ureaplasmas. 1981

R B Truscott

A comparison of the in vitro activity of rosaramicin and minocin against 52 bovine Ureaplasma sp. strains, 20 of which were isolated from semen, 23 from vaginal swabs, and nine from preputial washings, has shown that both antibiotics have good inhibitory action against the strains tested. Rosaramicin was ureaplasmacidal in most instances at, or close to the inhibitory level while for most strains studied a ureaplasmacidal level of minocin was not found.
