Stability constants of ciprofloxacin with β CD derivatives and antibacterial activity of ciprofloxacin/β CD derivative complexes against MRSA.
| Test Sample | Stability Constant (M−1) | Antibacterial Activity 1 |
|---|---|---|
| Ciprofloxacin | - | 5.78 [76] |
| Β CD | 29.84 [76] | 5.58 [76] |
| 29.1 [77] | ||
| HP-βCD | 278 [75] | |
| mET-βCD | 627.3 [76] | 8.825 [76] |
1 Antibacterial activity was calculated by following equation; antibacterial activity = −log (N/N0), where, N was the CFU/mL of bacterial suspension on the sample and N0 was the initial CFU/mL [78].
