Variability of Agar Dilution-Replicator Method of Yeast Susceptibility Testing [PDF]
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 ...

Comparison of microtiter broth dilution and agar dilution methods for susceptibility testing of Eikenella corrodens [PDF]
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.

Assessment of the gradient diffusion method for fosfomycin susceptibility testing in Staphylococcus spp. and Enterococcus spp. isolated from the urine of companion dogs in Thailand [PDF]
Background and Aim: The agar dilution method is the approved method for determining the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) in fosfomycin susceptibility testing, whereas the broth dilution method is not recommended. This study aimed to investigate the

Antimicrobial susceptibility of flavobacteria as determined by agar dilution and disk diffusion methods [PDF]
A total of 106 clinical isolates of flavobacteria, including 41 isolates of Flavobacterium meningosepticum, 59 of Flavobacterium indologenes, and 6 of Flavobacterium odoratum were collected from January 1992 to December 1995 from patients in Taiwan.

Evaluation of agar dilution and broth microdilution methods to determine the disinfectant susceptibility [PDF]
A variety of disinfectants have been widely used in veterinary hygiene, food industries and environments, which could induce the development of bacterial resistance to disinfectants. The methods used to investigate antimicrobial effects of disinfectant vary considerably among studies, making comparisons difficult. In this study, agar dilution and broth

Susceptibilities of genital mycoplasmas to the newer quinolones as determined by the agar dilution method [PDF]
The increasing resistance of genital mycoplasmas to tetracycline poses a problem because tetracycline is one of the few antimicrobial agents active against Mycoplasma hominis, Ureaplasma urealyticum, chlamydiae, gonococci, and other agents of genitourinary-tract disease.
