Setting interpretive breakpoints for antimicrobial susceptibility testing using disk diffusion.
Antimicrobial susceptibility testing plays a key role in clinical microbiology. The disk diffusion test dates back to the 1940s and became standardised from the 1950s, with the International Collaborative Study (ICS) and National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards (NCCLS) as the two major standards. Interlaboratory variation of disk test results was recognised early but has never been ...
متن کاملPreliminary interpretive susceptibility testing criteria for FK-037 with 30-microgram disks.
FK-037, a new parenteral cephalosporin, was tested against 483 organisms from clinical infections to establish preliminary susceptibility testing criteria with 30-micrograms disks. The proposed breakpoint zone diameters were > or = 17 mm (MIC correlate, < or = 8 micrograms/ml) for the susceptible category and < or = 13 mm (MIC correlate, > or = 32 micrograms/ml) for the resistant category. Thes...
متن کاملAntimicrobial activity of fusidic acid and disk diffusion susceptibility testing criteria for gram-positive cocci.
The in vitro activity of fusidic acid was assessed and was compared with those of cloxacillin, cefamandole, vancomycin, teicoplanin, ofloxacin, ciprofloxacin, pefloxacin, and fleroxacin against 500 gram-positive cocci: 151 Staphylococcus aureus, 197 coagulase-negative staphylococci, and 152 Enterococcus faecalis strains. All clinical isolates were concomitantly tested by disk diffusion and agar...
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...
متن کاملDiffusion disk susceptibility testing with cefotaxime.
The diffusion disk susceptibility of Staphylococcus aureus, Enterobacteriaceae, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa to cefotaxime was determined. A 30-mug disk provided data for the susceptibility of P. aeruginosa, but yielded extremely large zones of inhibition against Enterobacteriaceae. A 5-mug disk seemed to provide the most useful susceptibility data for S. aureus and Enterobacteriaceae.
