The Minimum Inhibitory Concentration of Antibiotics: Methods, Interpretation, Clinical Relevance [PDF]

Pathogens, 2021
Inefficiency of medical therapies used in order to cure patients with bacterial infections requires not only to actively look for new therapeutic strategies but also to carefully select antibiotics based on variety of parameters, including microbiological. Minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) defines in vitro levels of susceptibility or resistance of

Estimation of the wild‐type minimum inhibitory concentration value distribution [PDF]

Statistics in Medicine, 2013
Antimicrobial resistance has become one of the main public health burdens of the last decades, and monitoring the development and spread of non‐wild‐type isolates has therefore gained increased interest. Monitoring is performed based on the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values, which are collected through the application of dilution ...
