Determination of minimum inhibitory concentrations [PDF]

Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2001
Abstract Minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) are defined as the lowest concentration of an antimicrobial that will inhibit the visible growth of a microorganism after overnight incubation, and minimum bactericidal concentrations (MBCs) as the lowest concentration of antimicrobial that will prevent the growth of an organism after ...

Evaluation of clinicians’ knowledge and use of minimum inhibitory concentration values

Brazilian Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2021
Routinely reporting minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values to clinicians remains controversial. We surveyed clinicians to assess their knowledge and usage of MIC in clinical scenarios. The majority of respondents used MIC values to select antibiotic therapy, with a tendency to use those antibiotics with lower MICs, regardless of clinical ...

The role of cascade reporting integrated with breakpoint to minimum inhibitory concentration quotient (minimum inhibitory concentration therapeutic index) and minimum inhibitory concentration guiding table on clinical microbiology reporting of culture-proven bloodstream infections

Journal of Current Research in Scientific Medicine, 2023
Background: The breakpoint to minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) quotient (BMQ) of an antimicrobial agent is the ratio of susceptible breakpoint divided by MIC of the test isolate. The higher the BMQ, the better is the therapeutic efficacy.
