Inhibitory and bactericidal activities of ciprofoxacin, temafloxacin and tosufloxacin were determined against isolates of Staphylococcus aureus and coagulase negative Staphylococci from various chilean hospitals. Time-kill experiments were performed against one selected strain of each of these bacterial isolates. Tosufloxacin showed highest activity against isolates of Staphylococci either methicillin resistant and methicillin susceptible. Ciprofloxacin was slightly less active temafloxacin
