Values represent means (% coefficient of variation).

Abbreviations: t½: half life; Vd: volume of distribution; CL: clearance; Strep: streptomycin. All lead spectinamides had excellent aqueous solubility >1mM.

t½ is based on decline of plasma concentration in the therapeutically relevant concentration range.
