Abstract

We compared the efficacies of 17 agents against rapidly growing and starved Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv. Few compounds have significant activity at attainable concentrations. However, two phenothiazine compounds at similar concentrations were bactericidal for starved and growing cells. These drugs appear to target a process important in both replicating and nonreplicating bacteria. Copyright © 2005, American Society for Microbiology. All Rights Reserved.
