Tentative disk diffusion susceptibility interpretive criteria for pefloxacin.
Standardized broth microdilution and disk diffusion susceptibility tests for pefloxacin were performed on 585 clinical isolates. The 5-micrograms pefloxacin disk is recommended, and the following breakpoints are proposed: susceptible, greater than or equal to 19 mm (MIC, less than or equal to 2.0 micrograms/ml); resistant, less than or equal to 15 mm (MIC, greater than 4.0 micrograms/ml); and i...
متن کاملTemafloxacin disk potency and tentative interpretive criteria for susceptibility tests.
Temafloxacin disk susceptibility test criteria were evaluated by testing 697 bacterial isolates. Either 5- or 10-micrograms disks could be used satisfactorily. A 5-micrograms temafloxacin disk with zone size breakpoints of less than or equal to 12 mm for resistance (MIC, greater than 4.0 micrograms/ml) and greater than 16 mm for susceptibility (MIC, less than or equal to 2.0 micrograms/ml) is r...
متن کاملTentative interpretive standards for disk susceptibility tests with moxalactam (LY127935).
Moxalactam (LY127935; 6059-S) is a new beta-lactam antibiotic. We propose tentative zone standards for agar diffusion susceptibility tests with 30-microgram disks. The final selection of minimal inhibitory concentration breakpoints for definition of resistant and susceptible categories must await clinical experience with this drug. Some of the clinical questions to be answered are defined. A mo...
متن کاملTentative interpretive standards for agar disk diffusion antimicrobial susceptibility testing of cefoperazone.
Cefoperazone is a new cephalosporin with a very wide spectrum of activity, including activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa. It has less activity on enterococci and Acinetobacter. Of the 459 selected bacterial strains tested in this study, only 1.5% (7 strains and 6 genera) had minimum inhibitory concentrations of greater than or equal to 128 micrograms/ml. For a minimum inhibitory concentrati...
متن کاملInterpretive criteria for disk diffusion susceptibility testing of mupirocin, a topical antibiotic.
Five hundred gram-positive clinical bacterial isolates were tested for susceptibility to mupirocin by broth microdilution and disk diffusion methods (5- and 10-micrograms disks). All but 1 of 330 staphylococci (including 100 oxacillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus) were susceptible to less than or equal to 1.0 micrograms of mupirocin per ml. With a susceptible MIC breakpoint of less than or e...
