New Method for Antibiotic Susceptibility Testing [PDF]

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 1972
The most widely used method for routine antibiotic susceptibility testing of clinical isolates of bacteria is the paper-disc method. This has the advantage of simplicity, but to obtain reliable results considerable care is required both in the standardization of the procedure and in the interpretation of the zones of inhibition.

Antibiotic Susceptibility Testing of Bacteroides [PDF]

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 1972
Seventy Bacteroides strains isolated from clinical materials were tested in vitro against nine antibiotics by means of modified disc diffusion and agar dilution tests. Correlating the agar dilution susceptibility with the concentrations achievable in serum for each drug tested, we found that at least 90% of the ...
