Novel electronic biosensor for automated inoculum preparation to accelerate antimicrobial susceptibility testing

Scientific Reports, 2021
A key predictor of morbidity and mortality for patients with a bloodstream infection is time to appropriate antimicrobial therapy. Accelerating antimicrobial susceptibility testing from positive blood cultures is therefore key to improving patient ...

Penicillin Use in Meningococcal Disease Management: Active Bacterial Core Surveillance Sites, 2009. [PDF]

, 2016
In 2009, in the Active Bacterial Core surveillance sites, penicillin was not commonly used to treat meningococcal disease. This is likely because of inconsistent availability of antimicrobial susceptibility testing and ease of use of third-generation ...
