Evaluation 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 کاملReliability 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 کاملEvaluation of an Automated System for Reading and Interpreting Disk Diffusion Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing of Fastidious Bacteria
Results of disk diffusion antimicrobial susceptibility testing depend on individual visual reading of inhibition zone diameters. Therefore, automated reading using camera systems might represent a useful tool for standardization. In this study, the ADAGIO automated system (Bio-Rad) was evaluated for reading disk diffusion tests of fastidious bacteria. 144 clinical isolates (68 β-haemolytic stre...
متن کاملEvaluation of Mueller-Hinton agar for disk diffusion susceptibility tests.
Twelve lots of commercially prepared Mueller-Hinton agar from four medium manufacturers were evaluated for performance with recommended quality control organisms, medium pH, agar depth and uniformity, and characteristics of the zones of inhibition. Only 2 of 12 lots were acceptable for disk diffusion susceptibility tests. Significant problems were observed with the preparation and pouring of th...
