Comparison of Broth Microdilution, Agar Dilution, and Etest for Susceptibility Testing of Doripenem against Gram-Negative and Gram-Positive Pathogens

, 2010
The susceptibility of 513 clinical isolates to doripenem was determined by broth microdilution, agar dilution, and Etest. Overall agreements for Etest and agar dilution MIC values compared to reference broth microdilution at ±1 log 2

Pharmacokinetics of continuous infusion ceftolozane/tazobactam in two patients with extensive total body surface area burns

Pharmacotherapy: The Journal of Human Pharmacology and Drug Therapy, Volume 45, Issue 6, Page 386-392, June 2025.
Abstract Introduction Treatment of infections in patients with burn injuries is challenging due to altered antimicrobial pharmacokinetics. Continuous infusion β‐lactam therapy may be a useful antimicrobial stewardship strategy to improve pharmacodynamic target attainment in this population.

Comparison of Etest Method with Reference Broth Microdilution Method for Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing of Yersinia pestis

, 2011
The utility of Etest for antimicrobial susceptibility testing of Yersinia pestis was evaluated in comparison with broth microdilution and disk diffusion for eight agents. Four laboratories tested 26 diverse strains and found Etest

Evaluation of Etest Method for Determining Isavuconazole MICs against Cryptococcus gattii and Cryptococcus neoformans [PDF]

, 2008
We compared Etest with broth microdilution testing for isavuconazole activity against 92 Cryptococcus isolates. A 97.8 % agreement was found between these methods, without major discrepancies (>2-well dilution difference). Our findings support the use

Antifungal Resistance in Non‐fumigatus Aspergillus Species

Mycoses, Volume 68, Issue 4, April 2025.
ABSTRACT This review provides an in‐depth exploration of antifungal resistance in non‐fumigatus Aspergillus species, mainly focusing on acquired resistance. The available data have been compiled and sometimes re‐analysed. It highlights the increasing prevalence of resistance in non‐fumigatus species belonging to Flavi, Terrei, Nigri, and Nidulantes ...

Vertical Memristive Crossbar Array for Multilayer Graph Embedding and Analysis

Advanced Materials, Volume 37, Issue 10, March 12, 2025.
To address the challenge of embedding multilayer graphs with minimal complexity and information loss, this study introduces a vertical m‐CBA (vm‐CBA) capable of directly mapping multilayer relationships. By accurately representing inter‐layer and intra‐layer connections in three dimensions, vm‐CBA outperforms conventional embeddings in link prediction ...

Comparing the disk-diffusion and agar dilution tests for Neisseria gonorrhoeae antimicrobial susceptibility testing

Antimicrobial Resistance and Infection Control, 2016
Background We assessed the validity of testing for antimicrobial susceptibility of clinical and mutant Neisseria gonorrhoeae (GC) isolates by disk diffusion in comparison to agar dilution, and Etest® (bioMerieux, France), respectively, for three third ...

Real‐Time Assessment of H. pylori Infection to Guide Molecular Antibiotic Resistance Testing: A Combined Endoscopy‐Gastric Juice Analysis Approach

Alimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, Volume 61, Issue 3, Page 465-471, February 2025.
Endoscopy combined with intraprocedural gastric juice analysis is highly accurate for Helicobacter pylori detection and, in case of a positive finding, can selectively direct to antibiotic susceptibility testing. Genotypic susceptibility testing using gastric aspirate accurately detects H. pylori resistance to clarithromycin and levofloxacin, with test
