Comparison of direct and standard microtiter broth dilution susceptibility testing of blood culture isolates.
Turbid broth (0.5 ml) from blood culture bottles was inoculated into 0.5 ml of brain heart infusion broth, incubated for 3 to 6 h, diluted 1:500 in distilled water, and then inoculated directly into microtiter broth dilution susceptibility trays to test for minimal inhibitory concentrations. The results were compared to the standard tests performed 24 h later on colonies from subculture plates....
متن کاملBacterial culture and antibiotic susceptibility testing.
Complicated bacterial infections should prompt clinicians to pursue a definitive diagnosis. Two methods of bacterial culture and antibiotic susceptibility testing are commonly used in veterinary medicine: (1) the disk diffusion technique and (2) the broth dilution technique. Both methods identify the infecting pathogen and the antibiotics that are likely to inhibit its growth. The broth dilutio...
متن کاملAntibiotic Susceptibility Testing
12.2 TERMINOLOGY Selectivity All Clinically effective antimicrobial agents exhibit selective toxicity towards the bacterium rather than the host. It is this characteristic that distinguishes antibiotics from disinfectants. The basis for selectivity will vary depending on the particular antibiotic. When selectivity is high the antibiotics are normally non toxic. However, even highly selective an...
متن کاملAntibiotic treatment and susceptibility testing.
T he concept of attacking invading microorganisms without harming the host was first introduced by Paul Ehrlich. In 1910 he discovered ‘‘salvarsan’’, which he announced as a magic bullet for the treatment of syphilis. Penicillin, produced by the fungus, Penicillium notatum, was first discovered by Alexander Fleming in 1928, purified by Florey and Chain in 1940, and shown to have wide applicabil...
