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 کاملDiscrepancies between E-Test and Agar Dilution Methods for Testing Metronidazole Susceptibility of Helicobacter pylori
We read with interest the recently published paper by Piccolomini et al. (7). They evaluated three different methods to study the susceptibility of Helicobacter pylori to 20 antimicrobial agents. They found a very good correlation between E-test and agar dilution methods, as well as between broth microdilution and agar dilution. They recommended the E test as a reliable and alternative method f...
