Comparison of dalbavancin MIC values determined by Etest (AB BIODISK) and reference dilution methods using gram-positive organisms.
While standardized microdilution testing methodologies and quality control ranges exist for the novel glycolipopeptide dalbavancin, no testing methods have been described that are immediately available for routine use in clinical laboratories. In this study, we found that the dalbavancin Etest (AB BIODISK, Solna, Sweden) procedure demonstrated a high degree of agreement (100% within +/-2 log(2)...

متن کاملComparison of broth microdilution, agar dilution, and Etest for susceptibility testing of doripenem against gram-negative and gram-positive pathogens.
The susceptibility of 513 clinical isolates to doripenem was determined by broth microdilution, agar dilution, and Etest. Overall agreements for Etest and agar dilution MIC values compared to reference broth microdilution at +/-1 log(2) dilution were 88% and 94%, respectively. Etest MIC values demonstrated 98% agreement within +/-2 log(2) dilutions compared to the reference broth microdilution ...
متن کاملBroad-spectrum antibiotic resistance of Planctomycetes organisms determined by Etest.
OBJECTIVES The in vitro susceptibility of Planctomycetes organisms to antibiotics has seldom been studied and when it has, a variety of methods have been used. The objective of the study was to expand the knowledge of Planctomycetes antibiotic susceptibility patterns. METHODS Planctomyces maris, Planctomyces brasiliensis, Blastopirellula marina, Planctomyces limnophilus, Gemmata obscuriglobus...
متن کاملIn vitro susceptibility of Stenotrophomonas maltophilia isolates: comparison of disc diffusion, Etest and agar dilution methods.
The disc diffusion, Etest and agar dilution techniques were compared to evaluate the antimicrobial susceptibility profile of 70 Stenotrophomonas maltophilia isolates to seven antimicrobial agents. The S. maltophilia isolates were consecutively collected from May 2000 to May 2002 from individual patients, who were hospitalized in a private Brazilian hospital. The antimicrobial susceptibility tes...
