“…Due to the specific complexation ability of fluoroquinolones, in the case of OFL several metalic complexes (Mg 2+ , Ca 2+ , Ba 2+ , Ni 2+ , Zn 2+ , Cu 2+ , Co 2+ , Pd 2+ , Pt 2+ , Bi 3+ ) have been studied before in terms of antimicrobial activity (including Helicobacter pylori and Mycobacterium tuberculosis), binding to DNA and to albumins [13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21]. At the moment only a few metal complexes with silver of antibacterial quinolones are known: nalidixic acid, pipemidic acid (first generation), pefloxacin, norfloxacin, ciprofloxacin (second generation), moxifloxacin (fourth generation) [5,6,11,[22][23][24].…”
