Comparison of BIOGRAM and commercial microdilution antimicrobial susceptibility test systems.
The BIOGRAM (Difco Laboratories, Detroit, Mich.) system, which is designed to calculate MICs from disk diffusion zone diameters, was compared with two commercial microdilution antimicrobial susceptibility systems. A total of 111 clinical isolates were evaluated with each test system. Six additional isolates were tested in a comparison between BIOGRAM and Sceptor (Johnston Laboratories, Inc. Tow...
متن کاملComparison of Disc Diffusion, Broth Microdilution and Modified Hodge Test Susceptibility Testing Of Escherichia coli Isolates to Beta-Lactam Antibiotics
ABSTRACT Background and Objective: One of the main tasks of clinical microbiology laboratories is to determine antibiotic resistance profiles in common pathogens and ensure the selection of effective antibiotics for certain infections. The aim of this study was to compare the methods of disk diffusion, broth microdilution and modified Hodge test i...
متن کاملComparison of disk diffusion, VITEK 2, and broth microdilution antimicrobial susceptibility test results for unusual species of Enterobacteriaceae.
We compared the antimicrobial susceptibility testing results generated by disk diffusion and the VITEK 2 automated system with the results of the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) broth microdilution (BMD) reference method for 61 isolates of unusual species of Enterobacteriaceae. The isolates represented 15 genera and 26 different species, including Buttiauxella, Cedecea, Kluyv...
متن کاملAntimicrobial susceptibility testing of dermatophytes--comparison of the agar macrodilution and broth microdilution tests.
Fifty dermatophyte strains, recently obtained from clinical material, belonging to 4 different species were examined for their susceptibility to 5 systemic or topical antimycotic agents using both an agar macrodilution and a broth microdilution test. Antimycotics compared were griseofulvin, itraconazole, sertaconazole, terbinafine and ciclopiroxolamine. A comparison of the minimum inhibitory co...
متن کاملUse of Haemophilus test medium for broth microdilution antimicrobial susceptibility testing of Streptococcus pneumoniae.
A recently described medium (Haemophilus test medium [HTM]) for antimicrobial susceptibility testing of Haemophilus influenzae was evaluated in this study for broth microdilution testing of Streptococcus pneumoniae. A total of 137 clinical isolates was tested against 11 antimicrobial agents, using Mueller-Hinton broth supplemented with 3% lysed horse blood in parallel with HTM. Inocula of 5 X 1...
