Reliability of Disk Diffusion Test Results for the Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing of Nosocomial Gram-positive Microorganisms: Is E-test Method Better?
Disk diffusion test is the usual applicable method for assessing the antimicrobial susceptibility pattern in most institutions and hospitals. The aim of this study was to determine the reliability of resistant-reported results of disk diffusion test for 6 routinely used antibiotics against Gram-positive microorganisms of nosocomial origin, using E-test method. Over a 1-year period, clinic...

متن کاملAnalysis of antimicrobial susceptibility results using microcomputers.
A computer program has been developed on an IBM-PC-compatible microcomputer to analyze antimicrobial susceptibility results of large numbers of organisms tested against a variety of antimicrobial agents. For each species, the output includes the numbers, percentages, cumulative numbers, and cumulative percentages of organisms inhibited at different concentrations of each drug, the MICs for 50 a...
متن کاملSide effects of minocycline: different dosage regimens.
The incidence of side effects due to two dosage regimens of minocycline was examined over a 5-day period. A total of 60 normal women volunteers were randomly assigned in a double-blind manner to either a group who took 100 mg of minocycline twice a day or a group who took 75 mg of minocycline twice a day for 5 days. Both groups were comparable from the standpoints of age, size, race, and the us...
متن کاملGenetic differences in endothelial cells may determine atherosclerosis susceptibility.
Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease is a complex genetic disorder that involves many genes and has significant gene-environment interactions. The extensive study of candidate genes in pathways relevant to atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease risk factors has had limited success in explaining the population’s susceptibility to this disease. With the advent of the Genome Program, it is now b...
