Antibiotic Susceptibility Testing

2003
At the start of the Third Millennium, consensus has yet to be reached regarding the best techniques for meningococcal susceptibility testing and their standardization. Worse, there is no general agreement as to the definition of resistance, or perhaps more accurately, nonsusceptibility, to antibiotics of clinical importance.

Antimicrobial cream susceptibility testing

Burns, 1985
Utilizing a recently described rapid needle extrusion method for determining the sensitivities of burn wound isolates, we have compiled data on the resistance patterns of over 250 isolates from our burn unit. Major isolate groups were Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, various Enterobacteriaceae and Enterococci.

Multiple Susceptibility Testing: Is it Helpful?

American Journal of Clinical Hypnosis, 1996
This study explored whether or not the use of combined group and individually administered susceptibility tests improve the predictive power over the use of a singly administered test. Two hundred and eighty undergraduates were assigned to one of five groups: Group 1 received the HGSHS: A and then the SHSS:C; Group 2 the CIS and SHSS:C; Group 3 the ...

Genetic Testing for Cancer Susceptibility

Surgical Clinics of North America, 2008
Genetic testing for mutations in genes associated with an inherited predisposition to cancer is rapidly moving outside specialty genetic services and into mainstream health care. Surgeons, as front-line providers of cancer care, are uniquely positioned to identify those who may benefit from genetic testing and institute changes to their health care ...

Antifungal Drug Susceptibility Testing

1989
The continuing introduction of new antifungal drugs has increased the demand for methods of in vitro testing that can predict the effects of compounds in vivo. As with antibacterial drugs, tests designed to ascertain the minimum amount of drug needed to inhibit the growth of organisms in vitro (minimum inhibitory concentration, or MIC) have often been ...

Biofilms and Antifungal Susceptibility Testing

2016
Yeasts and filamentous fungi both exist as single cells and hyphal forms, two morphologies used by most fungal organisms to create a complex multilayered biofilm structure. In this chapter we describe the most widely used assays for the determination of biofilm production and assessment of susceptibility of biofilms to antifungal agents or host ...

Controversies in Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing

Clinics in Laboratory Medicine, 1984
This article examines a number of areas of disagreement surrounding antimicrobial susceptibility testing and discusses some of the useful susceptibility testing techniques for which no standardized procedures have been established.
