Burkfloxacin (BFX) is a fluoroquinolone analog that potently inhibits growth of intracellular Burkholderia.
Burkfloxacin is active against other gram-negative organisms in vitro, showing similar potency to the widely used fluoroquinolone, ciprofloxacin (Cip), against Escherichia coli ATCC 25922 and Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853.
Burkfloxacin near-completely inhibits plaque formation by Bt and Bp at concentration of 0.5 uM.
Burkfloxacin functions as a canonical fluoroquinolone by inhibiting the negative DNA supercoiling activity of E. coli DNA gyrase.
Treatment with Burkfloxacin was significantly more effective than ceftazidime, the current antibiotic of choice, for improving survival and decreasing bacterial counts in major organs in a murine model of fulminant respiratory melioidosis.
