Broth dilution testing of Candida albicans susceptibility to ketoconazole.
We performed a detailed investigation of the kinetics of ketoconazole activity in the setting of broth dilution testing of Candida albicans susceptibility. Turbidimetric readings reflected parallel quantitative colony counts. The method of endpoint determination markedly affected the results. Determinations of 50% inhibitory concentrations clearly separated the ketoconazole-resistant strains fr...
متن کاملComparative evaluation of alternative methods for broth dilution susceptibility testing of fluconazole against Candida albicans.
A comparative evaluation of methods for broth macro- and microdilution susceptibility testing of fluconazole was conducted with 119 clinical isolates of Candida albicans. Macro- and microdilution testing were performed according to National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards recommendations. For reference macrodilution testing, an 80% inhibition endpoint (MIC 80%) was determined after ...
متن کاملAntimicrobial susceptibility testing of Streptococcus pneumoniae by micro-broth dilution.
Thirty-three clinical isolates of Streptococcus pneumoniae were tested for susceptibility to penicillin and ampicillin by a standard agar dilution method. Results were compared to those obtained using a micro-broth dilution technique in which Mueller-Hinton broth was supplemented with 5% difibrinated whole sheep blood. Among the 33 strains, 2 were resistant (minimal inhibitory concentration, 8 ...
متن کاملComparison between E-test and CLSI broth microdilution method for antifungal susceptibility testing of Candida albicans oral isolates.
Thirty Candida albicans isolated from oral candidosis patients and 30 C. albicans isolated from control individuals were studied. In vitro susceptibility tests were performed for amphotericin B, fluconazole, 5-flucytosine and itraconazole through the Clinical and Laboratorial Standards Institute (CLSI) reference method and E test system. The results obtained were analyzed and compared. MIC valu...
متن کاملComparison of Broth Dilution and Disc Diffusion Method for the Antifungal Susceptibility Testing of Aspergillus flavus
With the discovery of newer antifungal agents, emergence of resistance among Aspergillus, is a major problem. In the present study, 25 different clinical isolates of Aspergillus flavus were screened for their susceptibility against five common antifungal agents by broth dilution and disc diffusion method with the aim to evaluate both the methods for their suitability to adapt in clinical labora...
