How to accelerate antimicrobial susceptibility testing [PDF]

Clinical Microbiology and Infection, 2019
Antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) results are crucial for timely administration of effective antimicrobial treatment, and, thus, should be made available to clinicians as fast as possible. In particular, increasing rates of multidrug-resistant organisms emphasize the need for rapid AST (rAST).This article aims to provide microbiologists and ...
