متن کاملEvaluation of Antibiotic Susceptibility Pattern of Staphylococcus Aureus in Clinical Specimens of Patients Admitted to Ayatollah Mousavi Hospital in Zanjan Using Disk Diffusion, E.test and D-test Methods
Introduction: Staphylococcus aureus is an important cause of severe infections in hospital and community and can cause significant mortality and morbidity in patients. In this study, the susceptibility and resistance pattern of Staphylococcus aureus to common antibiotics was investigated by disk diffusion, MIC (Minimal-inhibitory concentration) determination with E-test and D-test Methods: This...
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...
