Low correlation between MIC and mutant prevention concentration.
Soon after the term mutant prevention concentration (MPC) was coined to define the MIC of the least susceptible mutant subpopulation of a microbial culture (2), we noticed that MPCs and MICs correlated poorly (r 2 0.39) for a set of closely related fluoroquinolones when determined with Mycobacterium smegmatis (9). Subsequently, isolated examples were described in which correlation was low for a...
متن کاملDetermination of the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and mutant prevention concentration (MPC) of selected antimicrobials in bovine and swine Pasteurella multocida, Escherichia coli, and Staphylococcus aureus isolates
We compared the values of the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and mutant prevention concentration (MPC) values of three antimicrobial agents for 72 bovine isolates of Pasteurella multocida, 80 swine isolates of P. multocida, 80 bovine isolates of Escherichia coli, 80 swine isolates of E. coli, and 80 isolates of Staphylococcus aureus from bovine mastitis. The ratio of MIC90 /MPC90 which ...
متن کاملReliability of the Etest in light of the correlation between an antibiotic's critical concentration (Cc) and MIC values.
The study relates to the theory of diffusion methods for antibiotic sensitivity testing. The aim of the study was to show the relationship between the antibiotic critical concentration (Cc) and its minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC). The results contribute to the explanation of the Etest's reliability and support the scientific basis for MIC determination using agar diffusion methods. Susce...

15 صفحه اولThe Correlation between Infants’ Birth Weight and Apgar Score and Maternal Hemoglobin Concentration
Background: Various studies have come to contradictory results regarding the relationship between maternal hemoglobin (Hb) level and adverse pregnancy outcomes. The present study aimed to investigate the birth outcomes among pregnant women who had normal hemoglobin levels in the first trimester of their pregnancy. Patients and Methods: In this prospective study, 108 healthy pregnant women wi...
