Comparison of Etest method with reference broth microdilution method for antimicrobial susceptibility testing of Yersinia pestis.
The utility of Etest for antimicrobial susceptibility testing of Yersinia pestis was evaluated in comparison with broth microdilution and disk diffusion for eight agents. Four laboratories tested 26 diverse strains and found Etest to be reliable for testing antimicrobial agents used to treat Y. pestis, except for chloramphenicol and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole. Disk diffusion testing is not r...
متن کاملComparison of broth microdilution method using Haemophilus test medium and agar dilution method for susceptibility testing of Eikenella corrodens.
Susceptibility testing of Eikenella corrodens is usually performed by a Mueller-Hinton sheep blood agar dilution (AD) method. However, this method is impractical for testing only a few strains. We compared AD with the broth microdilution method using Haemophilus test medium (HTM) in order to determine the susceptibility of 36 clinical isolates of E. corrodens to eight antimicrobial agents. MICs...

متن کاملAntimicrobial activity of plant natural extracts and essential oils
The use of natural products with curative aims is a common practice in any culture worldwide. It is mainly due to the activity of some extracts that they contain (terpens, essential oils, coumarines, flavonoids, etc.). The main aim of this chapter is to describe the techniques that allow evaluating the antimicrobial activity of plants extracts and their essential oils against bacteria and fungi...
متن کاملAntimicrobial activity of essential oils and other plant extracts.
The antimicrobial activity of plant oils and extracts has been recognized for many years. However, few investigations have compared large numbers of oils and extracts using methods that are directly comparable. In the present study, 52 plant oils and extracts were investigated for activity against Acinetobacter baumanii, Aeromonas veronii biogroup sobria, Candida albicans, Enterococcus faecalis...
