چکیده

The results of disk diffusion and plate dilution susceptibility testing of Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Proteus mirabilis on media gelled with agar-agar or with a synthetic hydrogel were compared. Synthetic hydrogel can be combined with a totally defined synthetic amino acid medium to yield a reproducible, totally defined, synthetic solid medium without the antagonistic or booster effects of some components of agar. Such a medium could be used as a reference medium for susceptibility testing.

Collaborative evaluation in seven laboratories of a standardized micromethod for yeast susceptibility testing.

The new micromethod for yeast susceptibility testing, MYCOTOTAL, was evaluated with 10 reference strains in seven laboratories. Ready-to-use microtitration plates and the same synthetic medium were used with two dilutions of imidazoles, flucytosine, and amphotericin B, permitting the categorization of each strain as susceptible, intermediate, or resistant. The results were compared with the MIC...

Influence of culture medium on susceptibility testing with BAY n 7133 and ketoconazole.

The effect of four culture media (two complex and undefined [Sabouraud glucose and Kimmig] and two synthetic and defined [synthetic amino acid medium, fungal, and modified yeast nitrogen base]) on the activity in vitro of two newer azole compounds (BAY n 7133 and ketoconazole) was assessed with five strains each of Candida albicans, Candida parapsilosis, and Cryptococcus neoformans. Also, the n...
