Comparison of agar dilution, microdilution, E-test, and disk diffusion methods for testing activity of cefditoren against Streptococcus pneumoniae.
This study evaluated the susceptibility of pneumococci to cefditoren by agar dilution and microdilution methods (both in air) and by E-test (AB Biodisk, Solna, Sweden) and disk diffusion methods (both in CO(2)). By the three MIC tests, the MICs at which 50 and 90% of isolates were inhibited (MIC(50)s and MIC(90)s) were, respectively, as follows (in micrograms per milliliter): for the 65 penicil...
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 agar dilution, broth microdilution, E-test, disk diffusion, and automated Vitek methods for testing susceptibilities of Enterococcus spp. to vancomycin.
An evaluation was undertaken to determine the optimal method for testing the susceptibilities of 100 clinical isolates and two reference strains of Enterococcus spp. to vancomycin in vitro. Six testing methods were studied by using the following media and incubation times: agar screen with the Synergy Quad Plate (Remel, Lenexa, Kans.), an in-house-prepared brain heart infusion (BHI) agar plate,...
متن کاملCorrelation of netilmicin agar dilution and disk diffusion susceptibilities.
A study of 283 isolates of gram-negative bacilli revealed a good correlation (r = -0.74) between disk diffusion zones of inhibition and agar dilution minimal inhibitory concentrations. Regression analysis suggested that strains with zone sizes =/<11 mm should be considered resistant, but 34 of 45 strains resistant by minimal inhibitory concentration (including 27 strains of Pseudomonas aerugino...
متن کاملCorrelation of netilmicin disk diffusion susceptibility and agar dilution susceptibility.
The minimal inhibitory concentration of netilmicin determined by the agar dilution method was correlated with the disk diffusion zone of inhibition against 322 clinical isolates. Regression line analysis revealed good correlation, r = -0.90, and suggested that isolates with zone sizes </=14 mm should be considered resistant.
