“…Levofloxacin‐resistant strains were isolated during 2019 to 2020 from three patients, of which two had used topical nadifloxacin and the other had used oral levofloxacin for acne treatment. The Japanese acne treatment guidelines recommend topical use of nadifloxacin and ozenoxacin, and the emergence frequency of resistant strains at exposure concentrations is quite low after adequate use 24–26 . Hence, we presume inappropriate use of topical quinolones by some patients.…”

“…Another Japanese study showed that MICs of ozenoxacin against three levofloxacin-susceptible Propionibacterium acnes strains (MIC of levofloxacin; ≤4 μg/ml) and three levofloxacin-resistant P. acnes strains (MIC of levofloxacin; ≥8 μg/ml) ranged from 0.03 to 0.06 μg/ml and from 0.25 to 0.5 μg/ml, respectively [33]. These results suggest that ozenoxacin has a potent bactericidal activity against both levofloxacin-susceptible and levofloxacin-resistant P. acnes, a microorganism not included in the present study.…”

“…The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) test systems were created by diluting different drug solution in 96-well plates to a volume of 100 μL, and the enrofloxacin sodium, enrofloxacin hydrochloride and EM were double diluted 28 to final concentrations ranging from 25 to 0.0488 μg/mL, and then 100 μL bacterial suspensions was added to each drug-containing well. The MIC was determined visually as the first dilution step with a complete growth inhibition [30][31][32] and the minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) was determined after the MIC. 10 μL mixtures were extracted from the wells in the 96-well plate that were visually free of bacterial growth, and then uniformly coated on the MHA medium after serial dilution, and incubated at 37°C for 18-24 h. The number of colonies on the plate was calculated, and the minimum concentration killing 99.9% of the bacteria was recorded as MBC.…”
