Evaluation of Etest method for determining caspofungin (MK-0991) susceptibilities of 726 clinical isolates of Candida species.
The performance of the Etest for testing the susceptibilities to caspofungin (MK-0991) of 726 isolates of Candida spp. was assessed against the National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards (NCCLS) microdilution broth method. The NCCLS method employed RPMI 1640 broth medium, and MICs were read after incubation for 48 h at 35 degrees C. MICs were determined by Etest for all 726 isolates w...
متن کاملEffect of culture medium on the disk diffusion method for determining antifungal susceptibilities of dermatophytes.
We have evaluated a disk diffusion method to determine the activities of five drugs against 50 strains of dermatophytes and to assess the influence of the culture medium (antibiotic medium 3, high-resolution medium, and RPMI) on the inhibition zone diameters (IZD). There were no differences among the medium/drug combinations, except for itraconazole-RPMI, which showed the narrowest IZD.
متن کاملDisk diffusion-based methods for determining Candida parapsilosis susceptibility to anidulafungin.
Zone diameters for anidulafungin by disk diffusion for 139 isolates of C. parapsilosis were compared with MICs by NCCLS M27-A2 broth microdilution. The comparison was poor unless the disks were prepared by dissolving anidulafungin in 1% dimethyl sulfoxide plus 0.1% Tween 80 and testing on Mueller-Hinton agar flooded with glucose and methylene blue.
متن کاملEvaluation of the modified broth-disk method for determining antibiotic susceptibilities of anaerobic bacteria.
A total of 110 strains of anaerobic bacteria including 9 different genera was tested for antibiotic susceptibility by the modified broth-disk method of Wilkins and Thiel (1973), using prereduced media and the VPI anaerobic culture system. Results were compared with those obtained with an agar dilution technique with incubation in a GasPak jar. There was greater than 95% agreement between the tw...
متن کاملEvaluation of the Etest and disk diffusion methods for determining susceptibilities of 235 bloodstream isolates of Candida glabrata to fluconazole and voriconazole.
The performances of the Etest and the disk diffusion methods for testing of the susceptibilities of 235 Candida glabrata isolates to fluconazole and voriconazole were compared with that of the National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards (NCCLS) approved standard broth microdilution (BMD) method. The NCCLS method used RPMI 1640 broth medium, and MICs were read after incubation for 48 h ...
