Table 3 Distribution by farm of bacterial pathogens isolated before treatment on day 0 from lower respiratory tract lesions and bronchoalveolar lavage samples, and ranges of minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) of marbofloxacin and enrofloxacin

From: Randomised controlled field study to evaluate the efficacy and clinical safety of a single 8 mg/kg injectable dose of marbofloxacin compared with one or two doses of 7.5 mg/kg injectable enrofloxacin for the treatment of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae infections in growing-fattening pigs in Europe
