Abstract

An evaluation of the anti- Mycobacterium abscessus activity expressed by a novel oxazolidinone, contezolid (MRX-I), toward 12 reference strains and 194 clinical isolates was conducted. Contezolid was active against M. abscessus in vitro , with effects comparable to the anti- M. abscessus effects of linezolid both extracellularly and intracellularly.
