Criteria for disk susceptibility tests and quality control guidelines for the cefoperazone-sulbactam combination.
For in vitro susceptibility tests with cefoperazone and sulbactam (a beta-lactamase inhibitor), 75/30-micrograms disks may be used with the interpretive zone size breakpoints that are currently used for 75-micrograms cefoperazone disks. For dilution tests, a 2:1 ratio of cefoperazone to sulbactam is recommended. For quality control purposes, MIC limits that are used to monitor cefoperazone test...
متن کاملMIC quality control guidelines and disk diffusion test optimization for CEM-101, a novel fluoroketolide.
The development of diagnostic susceptibility tests for CEM-101, a new fluoroketolide, was addressed by structured studies to determine the optimal disk diffusion test concentration and effects of various testing conditions or supplements and to establish the quality control (QC) ranges for reference broth microdilution tests. The 15-microg CEM-101 disk was selected, and MIC ranges for a total o...
متن کاملEvaluation of Cefoxitin Disk Diffusion Test for Routine Detection of Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus Aureus
Background and Objectives: Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a major cause of nosocomial and community acquired infections. Detection of MRSA in laboratories is very important for treatment and appropriate infection control. The aim of this study was to evaluate cefoxitin disk diffusi...
متن کاملCaspofungin disk diffusion breakpoints and quality control.
Interpretive disk diffusion breakpoints for caspofungin are proposed by evaluating 762 isolates of Candida spp., representing 10 different species obtained as part of the caspofungin clinical trials. Standardized broth microdilution reference tests were compared to the zone diameters observed with 5-microg caspofungin disks produced by two different disk manufacturers. Disk diffusion breakpoint...
متن کاملDetermination of disk diffusion and MIC quality control guidelines for JNJ-Q2, a novel quinolone.
JNJ-Q2 is a novel fluorinated 4-quinolone in development for treatment of acute bacterial skin and skin structure infection and community-acquired bacterial pneumonia. This quality control (QC) study was performed to establish ranges for control strains: Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 29213 (0.004 to 0.015 μg/ml), Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29212 (0.015 to 0.06 μg/ml), Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 2...
