Evaluation of errors during susceptibility reporting of glycopeptide antibiotics for enterococcal isolates on sole basis of widely used disk diffusion test

Healthcare in Low-resource Settings, 2022
In resource limited settings, very often susceptibility reports glycopeptide antibiotics are released only on the basis of disk diffusion test. Determination of MIC by either E-strips or microbroth dilution tests can be of paramount importance in ...
