Agar-based disk diffusion assay for susceptibility testing of dermatophytes.
Currently, no agar-based susceptibility testing method has been standardized for testing dermatophytes. We describe a newly developed agar-based method employing disk diffusion assay to test the susceptibility of 47 isolates of dermatophytes against 8 antifungals. Our results show that the method is reproducible, is simple, and could be used to determine the antifungal susceptibility of dermato...
متن کاملCorrelation of netilmicin disk diffusion susceptibility and agar dilution susceptibility.
The minimal inhibitory concentration of netilmicin determined by the agar dilution method was correlated with the disk diffusion zone of inhibition against 322 clinical isolates. Regression line analysis revealed good correlation, r = -0.90, and suggested that isolates with zone sizes </=14 mm should be considered resistant.
متن کاملEvaluation of Mueller-Hinton agar for disk diffusion susceptibility tests.
Twelve lots of commercially prepared Mueller-Hinton agar from four medium manufacturers were evaluated for performance with recommended quality control organisms, medium pH, agar depth and uniformity, and characteristics of the zones of inhibition. Only 2 of 12 lots were acceptable for disk diffusion susceptibility tests. Significant problems were observed with the preparation and pouring of th...
متن کاملComparison of Disk Diffusion, Agar Dilution, and Broth Microdilution for Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing of Five Chitosans
ii Acknowledgements I would like to express my deep appreciation to my advisors Drs. Beilei Ge and Witoon Prinyawiwatkul, for their support, encouragement, and helpful guidance throughout my M. S. study. Their intelligence, enthusiasm, inspiration and academic perspectives impressed me immensely. Also I want to thank Dr. Zhimin Xu, as my committee member, who gave me valuable suggestions and su...
متن کاملDisk diffusion susceptibility testing of Nocardia species.
The effectiveness of 13 antimicrobial agents against 51 clinical isolates of Nocardia was determined with use of agar dilutions and disk diffusion method. Amikacin inhibited less than 90% of isolates and, like the other aminoglycosides, showed good correlation between minimal inhibitory concentrations and sizes of zones of inhibition around the disks. Both sulfisoxazole and trimethoprim-sulfame...
