Rifampicin, vancomycin, levofloxacin, ofloxacin, amoxicillin, oxacillin, doxycycline, linezolid, gentamicin, and tigecycline were assessed for their minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentrations against 12\n                      <jats:italic>S. aureus<\/jats:italic>\n                      strains, at pH 5.0 and 7.2 to mimic lysosomal and cytoplasmic environments, respectively. Those antibiotics whose bone estimated achievable concentration was commonly above their respective MIC for the strains tested were further assayed in a human osteocyte infection model under acute and chronic conditions. Osteocyte-like cells were treated at 1\u00d7, 4\u00d7, and 10\u00d7 the MIC for 1 and 7 days following infection (acute model), or at 15 and 21 days of infection (chronic model). The intracellular effectivity of each antibiotic was measured in terms of CFU reduction, small colony variant formation, and bacterial mRNA expression change. Only rifampicin, levofloxacin, and linezolid reduced intracellular CFU numbers significantly in the acute model. Consistent with the transition to a non-culturable state, few if any CFU could be recovered from the chronic model. However, no treatment in either model reduced the quantity of bacterial mRNA or prevented non-culturable bacteria from returning to a culturable state.
