Rapid Antimicrobial Susceptibility Test Using Tetrazolium Reduction [PDF]

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 1979
A rapid method of antimicrobial susceptibility testing has been developed, which uses a modified microdilution procedure and an inoculum of 10 7 bacteria per ml. Results are determined within 4 h with an indicator consisting of 2( p -iodophenyl)-3( p -nitrophenyl)-5 ...

Susceptibility Testing by Volatile Organic Compound Detection Direct from Positive Blood Cultures: A Proof-of-Principle Laboratory Study

Antibiotics, 2022
Background: Bacteria produce volatile organic compounds (VOCs) during growth, which can be detected by colorimetric sensor arrays (CSAs). The SpecifAST® system (Specific Diagnostics) employs this technique to enable antibiotic susceptibility testing (AST)

Rapid versus standard antimicrobial susceptibility testing to guide treatment of bloodstream infection. [PDF]

, 2021
BACKGROUND: Rapid antimicrobial susceptibility tests are expected to reduce the time to clinically important results of a blood culture. This might enable clinicians to better target therapy to a person's needs, and thereby, improve health outcomes ...
