Why were tigecycline MICs higher in 2002 than later years?

We think this is an experimental artefact. Tigecycline is somewhat oxygen-labile, but this was not fully understood in 2002 when it was quite a new developmental agent. Its laboratory handling requirements were better understood from 2003 onwards, and the MICs obtained since then are more reliable.
