Techniques for Anaerobic Susceptibility Testing

Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1977
Minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of antimicrobial agents for anaerobic bacteria can be determined by agar dilution and broth dilution (including microdilution) techniques. If MICs are not determined routinely, the disk broth or category methods are recommended for routine use.

Preparing inoculum for susceptibility testing of anaerobes

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1984
We studied six methods for preparation of inoculum to use in susceptibility tests of anaerobic bacteria to determine viable counts of 15 different species of anaerobes. We counted viable bacteria for each method-organism combination. Methods studied included those used for the more routine tests (broth microdilution and broth-disk elution) and for the ...

Inoculum preparation for anaerobic susceptibility tests

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1983
The results of anaerobic susceptibility tests performed with inocula prepared directly from agar isolation media and from overnight broth cultures were compared. Altogether, 93.0% of the results with these two inoculum preparations were within one twofold dilution, including 92.5 and 95.6% of the results with Clostridium species and the Bacteroides ...

Gender differences in anaerobic power tests

European Journal of Applied Physiology and Occupational Physiology, 1990
The purpose of this study was to determine if the differences in anaerobic power between males and females could be accounted for by differences in body composition, strength, and neuromuscular function. A total of 82 untrained men and 99 women took part in the study.

Load optimization for the wingate anaerobic test

European Journal of Applied Physiology and Occupational Physiology, 1983
The purpose of the present study was to define the optimal loads (OL) for eliciting maximal power-outputs (PO) in the leg and arm modes of the 30s Wingate Anaerobic Test (WAnT). Eighteen female and seventeen male physical education students, respectively 20.6 +/- 1.6 and 24.1 +/- 2.5 years old, volunteered to participate.

Methods for Susceptibility Testing of Anaerobic Bacteria

Clinical Infectious Diseases, 1994
The susceptibility of anaerobic bacteria is determined by one of two methods: by using data from surveillance studies or by performing in vitro susceptibility tests. In the first method, surveillance studies of the activity of various antimicrobial agents against large collections of strains of different species are performed at a reference laboratory;

Anaerobic Exercise Testing in Children with Asthma

Journal of Asthma, 1998
Twenty-two males with asthma and 22 healthy males (7-18 years old) performed a Wingate Anaerobic Test. The subjects with asthma had a lower mid-maximal expiratory flow rate (78.3+/-25.3 vs. 100.1+/-24.5%, p < 0.01) than the controls. Aerobic and anaerobic exercise performance (peak power: PP; mean power: MP) were similar for the two groups whether ...

The Anaerobic Threshold Measurement in Exercise Testing

Clinics in Chest Medicine, 1984
The exercise intensity (VO2) above which aerobic energy production starts to be supplemented by anaerobic mechanisms is termed the anaerobic threshold (AT). Lactic acid is produced at an increased rate above this work level. Since this acid is almost completely buffered by HCO-3, the rate of CO2 production increases in excess of that being derived from

Ultrasonic testing of anaerobic bonded joints

Ultrasonics, 2002
The paper deals with ultrasonic testing of adhesive joints between sheets of thickness greater than 1 mm, bonded by a "zero thickness" layer of anaerobic adhesive. In the case of equally thick sheets, interference phenomena can arise that make impossible the use of the "decay method" (a method previously developed by the authors for the case of non ...

Evaluation of the E test for susceptibility testing of anaerobic bacteria

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1991
The susceptibilities of 105 clinical isolates of anaerobic bacteria were determined by a new method, the E test (AB Biodisk, Solna, Sweden), and were compared with the MICs for these organisms obtained by the reference agar dilution method by using supplemented brucella and Wilkins-Chalgren agars.
