Agar-based disk diffusion assay for susceptibility testing of dermatophytes.
Currently, no agar-based susceptibility testing method has been standardized for testing dermatophytes. We describe a newly developed agar-based method employing disk diffusion assay to test the susceptibility of 47 isolates of dermatophytes against 8 antifungals. Our results show that the method is reproducible, is simple, and could be used to determine the antifungal susceptibility of dermato...
متن کاملQuality controls for antimicrobial disk diffusion testing on Leptospira Vanaporn Wuthiekanun agar
BACKGROUND Disk diffusion susceptibility testing for Leptospira spp. on Leptospira Vanaporn Wuthiekanun (LVW) solid agar was reported recently. However, it was unclear whether the zone sizes obtained on LVW agar were comparable with those of other bacteria on Mueller-Hinton agar. METHODS Here, we evaluate the disk diffusion assay on LVW agar using the standard quality control (QC) bacterial s...
متن کاملQuantitation of imidazoles by agar-disk diffusion.
A simple, reliable, and inexpensive assay for quantitation of the imidazole drugs miconazole, RV 40,500, and RV 41,400 was tested. The assay, similar to a Kirby-Bauer test, was sensitive to less than or equal to 0.2 mug of drug per ml and linear from less than or equal to 0.2 to 10.0 mug/ml. Concentration of inoculum and agar depth in test plates was not as critical as the type of medium, amoun...
متن کاملComparison of Disk Diffusion, Agar Dilution, and Broth Microdilution for Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing of Five Chitosans
ii Acknowledgements I would like to express my deep appreciation to my advisors Drs. Beilei Ge and Witoon Prinyawiwatkul, for their support, encouragement, and helpful guidance throughout my M. S. study. Their intelligence, enthusiasm, inspiration and academic perspectives impressed me immensely. Also I want to thank Dr. Zhimin Xu, as my committee member, who gave me valuable suggestions and su...
متن کاملComparison of antimicrobial susceptibility testing of Campylobacter spp. by the agar dilution and the agar disk diffusion methods.
The correlation and the level of agreement between the standardized agar dilution and the agar disk diffusion methods for antimicrobial susceptibility testing of Campylobacter were investigated. A high-level agreement between the two methods was evident for aminoglycosides and fluoroquinolones, while a low-level agreement was observed for other antibiotics.
