Comparison of BIOGRAM and commercial microdilution antimicrobial susceptibility test systems.
The BIOGRAM (Difco Laboratories, Detroit, Mich.) system, which is designed to calculate MICs from disk diffusion zone diameters, was compared with two commercial microdilution antimicrobial susceptibility systems. A total of 111 clinical isolates were evaluated with each test system. Six additional isolates were tested in a comparison between BIOGRAM and Sceptor (Johnston Laboratories, Inc. Tow...
متن کاملComparison of broth microdilution, E Test, and agar dilution methods for antibiotic susceptibility testing of Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli.
A standardized broth microdilution method was compared to the E test and an agar dilution method for the antimicrobial susceptibility testing of Campylobacter jejuni and C. coli isolates. A group of 47 human clinical isolates, 37 isolates from retail poultry, and 29 isolates from living turkeys (total, 113 isolates) was included in the study. These encompassed 92 C. jejuni and 21 C. coli strain...
متن کاملComparison of Disc Diffusion, Broth Microdilution and Modified Hodge Test Susceptibility Testing Of Escherichia coli Isolates to Beta-Lactam Antibiotics
ABSTRACT Background and Objective: One of the main tasks of clinical microbiology laboratories is to determine antibiotic resistance profiles in common pathogens and ensure the selection of effective antibiotics for certain infections. The aim of this study was to compare the methods of disk diffusion, broth microdilution and modified Hodge test i...
متن کاملImproved method for determining antibiotic susceptibility of Flavobacterium columnare isolates by broth microdilution.
A simple and reproducible microdilution method was developed to test the susceptibility of the bacterium Flavobacterium columnare to antibiotics in vitro. The testing was conducted at 28 degrees C for 44-48 h at two dilutions of Mueller-Hinton broth (DMHB) using a standardized inoculum, a reference isolate of Escherichia coli ATCC25922 as a quality control organism, positive and negative contro...
متن کاملEvaluation of the Sceptor microdilution antibiotic susceptibility testing system: a collaborative investigation.
A multiwell, dried antimicrobial agent susceptibility test system, Sceptor (BBL Microbiology Systems, Cockeysville, Md.), was tested. The system was compared directly with a reference microdilution method by using two collections of stock cultures and 305 fresh clinical isolates. Sceptor was found to be in agreement (+/- log2 dilution) with the reference microdilution method in 96.9 to 98.3% of...
