Reliability of Disc Diffusion Susceptibility Testing

Infection Control, 1982
AbstractWe retested 2,181 bacteria-antibiotic combinations with the Kirby-Bauer disc-diffusion technique and found interpretive changes with 120 (5.5%). Most changes (101 of 120) were single steps (i.e. from R to I, I to R or S, or S to I). Of the 19 remaining, 10 of them were from R to Sand nine from S to R.

Tentative breakpoints and areas of technical uncertainty for early reading automated disc diffusion for Enterobacterales.

Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2020
BACKGROUND Disc diffusion is a reliable, accurate and cost-efficient procedure for antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) but requires long (18-24 h) incubation times.

Penicillin susceptibility testing of gonococci by disc diffusion

Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 1981
This study investigated the use of various beta-lactam discs in the detection of penicillin sensitive, intermediate resistant and resistant strains (minimal inhibitory concentrations of penicillin G of less than 0.06, 0.06 to 0.25, and greater than 0.25 mg/l respectively).

Preparation of Ormetoprim–Sulfadimethoxine-Medicated Discs for Disc Diffusion Assay

North American Journal of Aquaculture, 2011
Abstract Romet (a blend of ormetoprim and sulfadimethoxine) is a type A medicated article for the manufacture of medicated feed in the catfish industry. Recently, the commercial manufacture of ormetoprim–sulfadimethoxine susceptibility discs was discontinued.

SUSCEPTIBILITY TESTING WITH DISC DIFFUSION FOR NEW CEPHALOSPORINS: PRE‐DIFFUSION REVISITED

Acta Pathologica Microbiologica Scandinavica Series B: Microbiology, 1986
The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of 20‐hour pre‐diffusion, i.e. placing the antibiotic‐containing discs on the agar for 20 hours prior to inoculation, as compared to direct diffusion, i.e. placing the discs on the agar immediately after inoculation, for the newer 3.

Diffusion instability in a bi-modal disc

International Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1984
ABSTRACTA simplified model of radial diffusion in a particle disc with a bi-modal size distribution is presented. The large particle component excites the small particles’ dispersion velocity via gravitational scattering. The resulting small particle viscous stress goes through a maximum near τ ~ √3 Such a stress profile promotes the development of ...

Antibiotic susceptibility of methicillin-resistant staphylococci (MRS) of food origin: A comparison of agar disc diffusion method and a commercially available miniaturized test.

Food microbiology, 2018
Methicillin-resistant staphylococci (MRS) are a major concern to public and animal health. Thirty MRS (Staphylococcus aureus, S. cohnii, S. epidermidis, S. haemolyticus, S. hominis, S. lentus, S. lugdunensis, S. sciuri, and S. xylosus) isolates from meat
