Comparison of broth microdilution method using Haemophilus test medium and agar dilution method for susceptibility testing of Eikenella corrodens.
Susceptibility testing of Eikenella corrodens is usually performed by a Mueller-Hinton sheep blood agar dilution (AD) method. However, this method is impractical for testing only a few strains. We compared AD with the broth microdilution method using Haemophilus test medium (HTM) in order to determine the susceptibility of 36 clinical isolates of E. corrodens to eight antimicrobial agents. MICs...
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, tube dilution, and broth microdilution susceptibility tests for determination of ramoplanin MICs.
Standard broth microdilution (with and without bovine serum albumin [BSA] supplementation), tube dilution, and agar dilution susceptibility tests were compared for determining ramoplanin MICs. With a data base of 246 clinical isolates of gram-positive bacteria from 33 U.S. sites, it was shown that (i) agar and tube dilution susceptibility tests gave essentially the same results (93.9% of the te...
متن کاملComparison of broth microdilution, E Test, and agar dilution methods for antibiotic susceptibility testing of Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli.
A standardized broth microdilution method was compared to the E test and an agar dilution method for the antimicrobial susceptibility testing of Campylobacter jejuni and C. coli isolates. A group of 47 human clinical isolates, 37 isolates from retail poultry, and 29 isolates from living turkeys (total, 113 isolates) was included in the study. These encompassed 92 C. jejuni and 21 C. coli strain...
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...
