Comparison of broth microdilution, broth disk elution and automated system results in determining vancomycin susceptibilities of Staphylococcus aureus strains

Journal of Global Antimicrobial Resistance
Background: The broth disk elution (BDE) method has been recommended by CLSI as an alternative to the broth microdilution (BMD) method, which is the reference method for determining the colistin susceptibility of Gram-negative bacteria, since it is more ...

Reproducibility of broth microdilution MICs for the novel siderophore cephalosporin, cefiderocol, determined using iron-depleted cation-adjusted Mueller-Hinton broth.

Diagnostic microbiology and infectious disease, 2019
In 2017, the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) Subcommittee on Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing approved the use of iron-depleted cation-adjusted Mueller-Hinton broth (ID-CAMHB) prepared with Chelex® 100 resin (Bio-Rad Laboratories ...

Review of Colistin Susceptibility Testing with Current Data

Mediterranean Journal of Infection, Microbes and Antimicrobials
Polymyxin E is the main drug used in the treatment of microorganisms with multidrug resistance. The positively charged nature of colistin creates difficulties in susceptibility testing.

Antimicrobial susceptibility of Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli: comparison between Etest and a broth dilution method

Annals of Clinical Microbiology and Antimicrobials, 2018
Background Campylobacter is a leading cause of foodborne gasteroenteritis worldwide. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing for Campylobacter spp. is not routinely performed by most clinical laboratories.

Discordance of vancomycin minimum inhibitory concentration for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus at 2 μg/mL between Vitek II, E-test, and Broth Microdilution [PDF]

PeerJ, 2020
Background Vancomycin, the first line antibiotic for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) bacteremia, is often administered inappropriately when MIC is greater than 2 µg/mL, including ‘susceptible’ strains.

Antimicrobial susceptibility testing of colistin - evaluation of seven commercial MIC products against standard broth microdilution for Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Acinetobacter spp.

Clinical Microbiology and Infection, 2017
OBJECTIVE Both EUCAST and CLSI recommend broth microdilution (BMD) for antimicrobial susceptibility testing of colistin, but BMD is rarely used in routine microbiology laboratories.

Development of Broth Microdilution MIC and Disk Diffusion Antimicrobial Susceptibility Test Quality Control Ranges for the Combination of Cefepime and the Novel β-Lactamase Inhibitor Enmetazobactam

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2019
Third-generation cephalosporin resistance among Enterobacteriaceae, mediated by the spread of extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs), is a very serious medical concern with limited therapeutic options.

Bacteria‐Responsive Nanostructured Drug Delivery Systems for Targeted Antimicrobial Therapy

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Bacteria‐responsive nanocarriers are designed to release antimicrobials only in the presence of infection‐specific cues. This selective activation ensures drug release precisely at the site of infection, avoiding premature or indiscriminate release, and enhancing efficacy.

Increased zinc levels facilitate phenotypic detection of ceftazidime-avibactam resistance in metallo-β-lactamase-producing Gram-negative bacteria

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Ceftazidime-avibactam is one of the last resort antimicrobial agents for the treatment of carbapenem-resistant, Gram-negative bacteria. Metallo-β-lactamase-producing bacteria are considered to be ceftazidime-avibactam resistant. Here, we evaluated a semi-
