Eravacycline is a fluorocycline antibiotic in phase 3 clinical development for complicated intra-abdominal and urinary tract infections. To support its clinical development, a study was conducted to evaluate the effects of various susceptibility test parameters on the MIC values for aerobic bacteria. The results showed that eravacycline appears to be largely unaffected by medium age, medium additives, and other nonstandard assay conditions.
