E-test versus agar dilution for antibiotic susceptibility testing of Helicobacter pylori: a comparison study [PDF]

BMC Research Notes, 2020
Objective For evaluating the antibiotic resistance of Helicobacter pylori, the agar dilution method is the gold standard; however, using this method in daily practice is laborious. E-test has been proposed to be an uncomplicated method.
