Analysis of Certain Variables in the Agar Dilution Susceptibility Test [PDF]
Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 1976 This study examined (i) the activity of gentamicin added to agar in ratios of 1:100 and 1:1,000 to produce a final concentration of 1 μg/ml, (ii) the uniformity of distribution of gentamicin in agar in relation to the amount of mixing, and (iii) the effect of agar depth on the activity of gentamicin against Pseudomonas ...

In vitro activity of metronidazole against Helicobacter pylori as determined by agar dilution and agar diffusion [PDF]
Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 1991 Metronidazole activity against 25 clinical isolates of Helicobacter pylori was evaluated by agar dilution, epsilometer (E-test; AB Biodisk, Solna, Sweden), and disk diffusion methods after 3 and 5 days of incubation in a microaerophilic atmosphere. Agar dilution, performed in duplicate, provided reproducible results with MICs for 50% of the isolates of

In vitro Comparison of Disk Diffusion and Agar Dilution Antibiotic Susceptibility Test Methods for Neisseria gonorrhoeae [PDF]
Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1998 At present, most Neisseria gonorrhoeae testing is done with ß-lactamase and agar dilution tests with common therapeutic agents. Generally, in bacteriological diagnosis laboratories in Argentina, study of antibiotic susceptibility of N.gonorrhoeae is ...

Comparison of microtiter broth dilution and agar dilution methods for susceptibility testing of Eikenella corrodens [PDF]
Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 1983 Eikenella corrodens is a slow-growing, capnophilic, gram-negative rod which often grows poorly in liquid media. Consequently, the agar dilution technique is the method of choice for susceptibility testing of E. corrodens. We report a new microtiter broth dilution method for susceptibility testing of E.

Comparison of Agar Dilution, Broth Dilution, Cylinder Plate and Disk Diffusion Methods for Evaluation of Anti-leishmanial Drugs on Leishmania promastigotes [PDF]
Iranian Journal of Parasitology, 2012 Background: Leishmaniases are a group of diseases caused by Leishmania parasites. Growing of drug unresponsiveness in leishmaniasis patients necessitates the development of new drugs and accordingly a suitable assay is needed for evaluation of any ...

Detection of inducible β-lactamase by an agar dilution technique [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 1985 An agar dilution technique for the detection of inducible β-lactamase-mediated resistance to the newer cephalosporins is described. Cefoxitin (16 μg/ml) was incorporated in agar plates together with cefamandole (8 μg/ml) or cefotaxime (8 μg/ml). The susceptibility of 35 strains of Enterobacter cloacae to these combinations was compared with their ...

Variability of Agar Dilution-Replicator Method of Yeast Susceptibility Testing [PDF]
Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 1979 The agar dilution method of in vitro susceptibility testing of fungi was analyzed with a Steers-type inoculum replicator, ten strains, and three drugs. The replicator reproducibly delivered the same inoculum to each series of plates. The minimal inhibitory concentrations of ketoconazole (an imidazole) and 5-fluorocytosine, but not that of the polyene ...
