Marbofloxacin
Marbofloxacin is a fluoroquinolone antibiotic commonly used in veterinary medicine. Originally developed to treat gram negative bacterial infections, marbofloxacin exhibits antibacterial activity against a broad spectrum of bacteria, including species of Staphylococcus, Escherichia, Actinobacillus, Pasturella, and Mannheima. Marbofloxacin exerts its activity through inhibition of bacterial DNA gyrase.
