Comparison of susceptibility testing of Mycobacterium tuberculosis using the ESP culture system II with that using the BACTEC method.
The ESP Culture System II was evaluated for its capacity to test the susceptibility of 389 cultures of Mycobacterium tuberculosis to streptomycin, rifampin, ethambutol, and isoniazid. Good agreement with results with the BACTEC TB 460 was found. ESP II is a reliable, rapid, and automated method for performing susceptibility testing.
متن کاملAntimicrobial susceptibility testing of Mannheimia haemolytica and Pasteurella multocida isolated from calves with dairy calf pneumonia
This study evaluated the nasopharyngeal microbial flora and antimicrobial susceptibility patterns of the one hundred and thirty Holstein calves with dairy calf pneumonia from dairy farms of Mashhad Suburb between September 2002 and August 2003 . The most common micro-organisms isolated were Pasteurella multocida 80 (61.54%), Mannheimia haemolytica 41 (31.54%), Bacillus sp. 15 (11.54%), Staphy...
متن کاملRapid and simple MTT method for rifampicin and isoniazid susceptibility testing of Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
The MTT method for rifampicin and isoniazid susceptibility testing of Mycobacterium tuberculosis was developed by using bacterial suspension prepared from colonies on solid media. The MTT tube assay in 1 ml Middlebrook 7H9 broth was completed within 4 days for rifampicin (RMP) and within 7 days for isoniazid (INH). When MTT assay results with 279 M. tuberculosis clinical isolates were compared ...
متن کاملUse of pyrazinamidase activity on Mycobacterium tuberculosis as a rapid method for determination of pyrazinamide susceptibility.
Pyrazinamidase activity in clinical isolates of Mycobacterium tuberculosis has been previously found to correlate with susceptibility to the antituberculosis drug pyrazinamide. The Wayne method for determining pyrazinamidase activity, a technique also utilized as an aid in identification of mycobacteria, and thin-layer chromatography method were found to be useful screening methods for suscepti...
متن کاملRapid flow-cytometric susceptibility testing of Candida species.
OBJECTIVES To develop a rapid flow-cytometric antifungal susceptibility test and to compare results with the standard methods. METHODS Reference and laboratory strains of Candida were tested for susceptibility to fluconazole and echinocandin by fluorescent flow cytometry using Acridine Orange as indicator of viability. Flow cytometry results were compared with MICs as determined by macrodilut...
