Targeted peak concentrations versus concentrations administered in G. mellonella models

Antimicrobial (human dose) Targeted free peak concn (mg/liter) Concn (mg/liter) administered in G. mellonella model
Daptomycin (6 mg/kg) 9.8 9.15
Daptomycin (10 mg/kg) 14.0 13.07
Linezolid (600 mg) 14.0 8.00a
Gentamicin (1.3 mg/kg) 6.0 5.60
Rifampin (300 mg) 2.6 2.50
