Towards a Standardized Method for Broth Microdilution Susceptibility Testing of Haemophilus parasuis [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2017
ABSTRACTCurrently, there is no agreed method available for broth microdilution susceptibility testing ofHaemophilus parasuis, one of the most important bacterial pathogens in pig production. Therefore, the aim of this study was to develop a method that could be easily performed by diagnostic laboratories and that appears suitable for a harmonized ...

Effects of Microplate Type and Broth Additives on Microdilution MIC Susceptibility Assays [PDF]

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2019
The determination of antibiotic potency against bacterial strains by assessment of their minimum inhibitory concentration normally uses a standardized broth microdilution assay procedure developed more than 50 years ago. However, certain antibiotics require modified assay conditions in order to observe optimal activity.

Broth Microdilution Susceptibility Testing forLeptospiraspp [PDF]

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2004
ABSTRACTLeptospirosis in humans has traditionally been treated with penicillin or doxycycline. The choice of therapy offered at the time of initial patient presentation is often empirical, as definitive diagnosis can take weeks. Determining the activity of numerous antimicrobial agents against a wide range ofLeptospiraserovars may broaden empirical ...

Comparison of cation-adjusted Mueller-Hinton broth with Iso-Sensitest broth for the NCCLS broth microdilution method [PDF]

Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2000
Comparison of MIC results obtained in different parts of the world is currently difficult because of variations in methods. In this study, cation-adjusted Mueller-Hinton broth, the NCCLS-recommended medium, was compared with Iso-Sensitest broth, which is widely used in Europe. Microbroth dilution testing, using the NCCLS procedure, was performed on 124
