 In vitro bactericidal activity of Levofloxacin(LVFX)against Streptococcus pneumoniae ATCC 49619 on stationary phase was evaluated by time-kill study exposing the maximum drug concentration in plasma(Cmax)to elucidate bactericidal potential against S. pneumoniae. LVFX,CTRX and SBT/ABPC were assessed at Cmax when administered as intravenous doses in clinical setting, which concentrations were 9.8μg/mL, 172μg/mL and 70/142μg/mL. The samples were taken at the times of 1, 2, 3, and 4 h of exposure. LVFX killed more than 99.9% of viable cells≥ 3-log reduction from the initial inoculum)by 3 h exposure, and number of viable cells were decreased under the detection limit(3.3 log10 CFU/mL)by 4 h. On the other hand, CTRX and SBT/ABPC showed bacteriostatic activity, and both agents killed less than 99% of viable cells by 4 h. Because bacteria in infection sites seem to be grown like as stationary state, our results suggested that cephems and penicillins exhibited a bacteriostatic effect and quinolones, such as LVFX, exhibited bactericidal effect in the condition of host environment, LVFX showed potent bactericidal activity against S. pneumoniae both in log-phase and statoinary-phase, key causative pathogen for community-acquired pneumonia.
