Comparison of Disk Diffusion and E-Test with the Reference Method of Microbroth Dilution for Susceptibility Testing of Acinetobacter baumannii Isolates to Tetracyclines
Abstract Background and Objective: Due to the continuous increase of multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii strains around the world, decision making for an effective treatment of infections caused by this organism depends on the results of antimicrobial susceptibility tests. In this study, the validity of disk diffusion and E-test methods was assessed b...
متن کاملComparison of the Etest and agar dilution for in vitro antimicrobial susceptibility testing of Campylobacter.
The performance of the Etest and agar dilution for in vitro antimicrobial susceptibility of Campylobacter spp. was evaluated using a quality control strain Campylobactor jejuni ATCC 33560, and 81 C. jejuni and 54 Campylobacter coli isolates recovered from retail raw meats. Seven antimicrobial agents: chloramphenicol, ciprofloxacin, doxycycline, erythromycin, gentamicin, nalidixic acid and tetra...
متن کاملComparison of the Etest with agar dilution for antimicrobial susceptibility testing of Haemophilus ducreyi.
Two methods for determining the sensitivity of Haemophilus ducreyi to antimicrobial agents were compared; an agar dilution method and the Etest. The MICs of seven antimicrobial agents; penicillin V, ampicillin, trimethoprim, tetracycline, chloramphenicol, erythromycin and ciprofloxacin were determined for 20 strains of H. ducreyi. The MICs determined with the Etest and with the agar dilution me...
متن کاملMethicillin susceptibility testing of staphylococci by Etest and comparison with agar dilution and mecA detection.
The susceptibility to methicillin of 44 Staphylococcus aureus and 120 coagulase-negative staphylococci (CNS) was determined by Etest, agar dilution and presence of the mecA gene. There was agreement between the results of all methods when testing S. aureus. However, discrepancies occurred with CNS when cultural methods were compared with presence of the mecA gene. mecA-positive isolates tested ...
متن کاملComparison of automated microbroth dilution and agar dilution for antimicrobial susceptibility of Campylobacter jejuni isolated from dairy sources.
OBJECTIVES To compare the agreement between microbroth dilution and agar dilution for antimicrobial susceptibility testing of Campylobacter jejuni. METHODS Utilizing commercially prepared antimicrobial panels, microbroth dilution was compared with agar dilution for determining antimicrobial susceptibility in C. jejuni isolates. To assess the performance of both techniques for ampicillin, 190 ...
