Sensitivity tests with cephalosporins.
The sensitivity of 127 strains of miscellaneous Gram-negative bacilli to various cephalosporins was determined by three methods. Disc tests with cephaloridine (CLOR), cephalothin (CTIN) and cephalexin (CLEX) made most strains of beta-lactamase-producing Escherichia coli appear sensitive. Eight cephalosporins were tested by the agar break-point method using concentrations of 16 and 4 mg/l for al...
متن کاملMalaria rapid diagnostic tests.
Global efforts to control malaria are more complex than those for other infectious diseases, in part because of vector transmission, the complex clinical presentation of Plasmodium infections, >1 Plasmodium species causing infection, geographic distribution of vectors and infection, and drug resistance. The World Health Organization approach to global malaria control focuses on 2 components: ve...
متن کاملAnalytical sensitivity of rapid influenza antigen detection tests for swine-origin influenza virus (H1N1).
BACKGROUND A novel swine origin influenza virus (S-OIV) (H1N1) is spreading worldwide and threatens to become pandemic. OBJECTIVES Determine analytical sensitivity of selected commercially available rapid influenza antigen detection tests in detecting S-OIV H1N1. STUDY DESIGN Serial dilutions of two S-OIV isolates, one seasonal influenza A (H1N1) isolate and a nasopharyngeal aspirate from a...
متن کاملSensitivity and Specificity of Point-of-Care Rapid Combination Syphilis-HIV-HCV Tests
BACKGROUND New rapid point-of-care (POC) tests are being developed that would offer the opportunity to increase screening and treatment of several infections, including syphilis. This study evaluated three of these new rapid POC tests at a site in Southern California. METHODS Participants were recruited from a testing center in Long Beach, California. A whole blood specimen was used to evalua...
متن کاملSensitivity and specificity of dipstick tests for rapid diagnosis of malaria in nonimmune travelers.
Swift diagnosis of Plasmodium falciparum malaria in areas where the disease is not endemic is frequently complicated by the lack of experience on the side of involved laboratory personal. Diagnostic tools based on the dipstick principle for the detection of plasmodial histidine-rich protein 2 (HRP-2) and parasite-specific lactate dehydrogenase (pLDH), respectively, have become available for the...
