Gradient Plate for Hicomb Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) Test
Abstract Background and objectives: "The comb antibiotic sensitivity test" is a quick, reliable and cost effective method to determine the susceptibility of bacteria to different antibiotics. The purpose of this study is to design a plate that is easy and quick to use, and enable to be interpreted easily without the need for measurement of the margins with a ruler. Material and Method...
متن کاملComparison of disc diffusion results with minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values for antimicrobial susceptibility testing of Neisseria gonorrhoeae.
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVE objectives: As antimicrobial susceptibility testing of Neisseria gonorrhoeae provides guidance for appropriate treatment, there is a need for simple, reliable and cost-effective method for susceptibility testing. The present study was aimed to compare the results of two methods of susceptibility testing, minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values by E test with disc di...
متن کاملDetermination of Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) of Hygromycin B in CHO cells
Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells are considered as the most commonly used host for industrial manufacturing of therapeutic proteins. The aim of this study was to evaluate the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of hygromycin B in both CHO-DG44 and CHO-S cells since hygromycin B resistance cassette can be used for future selection of gene expression in CHO cells. The minimum inhibitory conce...
متن کاملMinimum Inhibitory Concentration of Peganum Harmala Extract Against Candida Species
Background and Aim: There are some rich sources of antifungals in medicinal herbs. They have general acceptance due to their low cost and insignificant side effects. The efficacy of Peganum harmala (P. harmala) extract against Candida species was investigated in this study. Materials and Methods: In this in vitro study, we used the maceration technique to obtain P. harmala aqueous and al...
متن کاملStatistical Methods for Automated Drug Susceptibility Testing: Bayesian Minimum Inhibitory Concentration Prediction from Growth Curves
Determination of the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of a drug that prevents microbial growth is an important step for managing patients with infections. In this paper we present a novel probabilistic approach that accurately estimates MICs based on a panel of multiple curves reflecting features of bacterial growth. We develop a probabilistic model for determining whether a given dilutio...
