Disk diffusion susceptibility testing of ticarcillin plus clavulanic acid.
Disk diffusion susceptibility testing of ticarcillin plus the beta-lactamase inhibitor clavulanic acid was performed on 489 clinical isolates, and the results were compared with reference broth microdilution susceptibilities. Four different disks containing 75 micrograms of ticarcillin plus 2.5, 5, 10, and 15 micrograms of clavulanic acid were evaluated. Based on test performance and clavulanic...
متن کاملDiscrepancies between disk diffusion and broth susceptibility studies of the activity of ticarcillin plus clavulanic acid against ticarcillin-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
Ticarcillin and clavulanic acid in combination were tested against 40 Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates resistant to ticarcillin by disk diffusion. A total of 21 isolates (53%) were susceptible to ticarcillin-clavulanate by disk diffusion, under currently recommended criteria for ticarcillin susceptibility. Macro-broth dilution tests (ticarcillin plus clavulanic acid, 2 micrograms/ml) confirmed s...
متن کاملTicarcillin and ticarcillin-clavulanic acid susceptibility tests: error rates for disk tests with consecutively isolated members of the family Enterobacteriaceae.
A five-laboratory coordinated study was undertaken to determine whether ticarcillin and ticarcillin-clavulanic acid disk susceptibility tests could accurately detect resistance among enteric bacilli. Each facility performed disk tests and broth microdilution susceptibility tests with reagents distributed from a common source, and appropriate controls were included in order to ensure methodologi...
متن کاملReassessment of susceptibility test interpretive criteria for ticarcillin and ticarcillin-clavulanic acid.
There are at least four different existing or proposed interpretive criteria for the disk diffusion susceptibility testing of ticarcillin and ticarcillin plus clavulanic acid (T/C). To assess these criteria, 570 gram-negative bacillary isolates were tested for susceptibility to ticarcillin and T/C by both disk diffusion and broth microdilution methods. These included 53 strains of the family En...
متن کاملIntraperitoneal penetration of ticarcillin/clavulanic acid (Timentin).
Thirty-eight patients undergoing elective abdominal surgery were given 3.0 g ticarcillin plus 0.2 g clavulanic acid as a single intravenous injection at varying times prior to the operation. Sterile assay discs were placed on the peritoneal surface in order to measure peritoneal fluid levels of each agent. Simultaneous serum levels were also measured. A total of 38 serum and peritoneal samples ...
