چکیده

Fishmeal extract agar is a new antibiotic sensitivity test medium. It is simpler and cheaper than Mueller-Hinton agar and comparable in its efficacy to the latter. It can also be used for isolation of moderately fastidious and non-fastidious bacteria from clinical specimens. Fishmeal extract broth can be used as a base for biochemical tests used for the identification of bacterial isolates.

Quality control in agar-dilution sensitivity-testing by direct assay of the antibiotic in the solid medium.

When antibiotic sensitivity of microorganisms is tested by agar dilution, single antibiotics are incorporated in solid media and 'spot' inocula of test strains are applied to the antibiotic media and to a plate without antibiotic. The usual method of quality control is to include control strains of known sensitivity.1 However, control strains are usually sensitive to a number of antibiotics, an...
