Recent Advances in Rapid Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing [PDF]

Clinical Chemistry, 2021
AbstractBackgroundAntimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) is classically performed using growth-based techniques that essentially require viable bacterial matter to become visible to the naked eye or a sophisticated densitometer.ContentTechnologies based on the measurement of bacterial density in suspension have evolved marginally in accuracy and ...

Progress on the development of rapid methods for antimicrobial susceptibility testing [PDF]

Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2013
Antimicrobial susceptibility testing is essential for guiding the treatment of many types of bacterial infections, especially in the current context of rising rates of antibiotic resistance. The most commonly employed methods rely on the detection of phenotypic resistance by measuring bacterial growth in the presence of the antibiotic being tested ...
