Product Data
Biological target:
Gamithromycin is an antimicrobial agent which can inhibit the growth of MmmSC strains B237 and Tan8 with MICs of 0.00012 and 0.00006 μg/mL, respectively.
In vitro activity:
TBD
In vivo activity:
The clinical scores, number of abscesses and the abscess scores after 1 and 2 weeks of treatment were significantly lower for foals treated with GAM (gamithromycin) or AZM‐RIF compared to control foals (Fig 1). The WBC count of foals treated with GAM was significantly higher than that of foals treated with AZM‐RIF on week 3 of treatment (Fig 1B).
