1. Antibiotic Susceptibility Testing: Effects Of Variability In Technical Factors On Minimum Inhibitory Concentration Using Broth Microdilution
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk biokemi och mikrobiologiAbstract : Background Broth microdilution (BMD) is a gold-standard reference method to determine minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of antibiotics. For this, a standardized concentration of bacterial inoculum (2e5–8e5 colony-forming units, CFU/ml) is added to progressively higher concentrations of antibiotics. READ MORE

2. Bakterier och svampar påvisade i ögonprover från svenska hästar samt bakteriernas antibiotikakänslighet
University essay from SLU/Dept. of Clinical SciencesAbstract : Ocular infections are a frequent encountered condition in horses and veterinarians in both field and hospital practice are involved in therapy decisions. Before treatment of a suspected ocular infection, cytology along with culture and susceptibility testing is recommended to guide the choice of appropriate topical therapy. READ MORE

3. Algorithms for antibiotic susceptibility testing for pathogens causing sepsis
University essay fromAbstract : This study is a part of a project at Q-linea that aims to present a rapid diagnostic instrument to speed up the process of identification of pathogens and determination of MIC-values (Minimal Inhibitory Concentration) of antibiotic needed to treat patients with sepsis. Specifically, this report is aimed to describe the development and implementation of algorithms that examine susceptibility profiles ofsepsis related pathogens where the bacteria have been exposed to different antibiotics and by different lapse of concentrations.
