1. 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 mikrobiologi

   Author : Seemal Aziz; [2021]
   Keywords : Antibiotic susceptibility settings; broth microdilution; antimicrobial resistance; minimum inhibitory concentration; MIC; AST; Sepsis;

   Abstract : 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

3. 2. Bakterier och svampar påvisade i ögonprover från svenska hästar samt bakteriernas antibiotikakänslighet

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Clinical Sciences

   Author : Ida Brantemar; [2018]
   Keywords : häst; okulär flora; bakterier; svampar; mykos; antibiotika; antimikrobiell känslighetstest; equine; horse;

   Abstract : 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

4. 3. Algorithms for antibiotic susceptibility testing for pathogens causing sepsis

   University essay from

   Author : Stina Åhag; [2017]
   Keywords : Sepsis; Antibiotic resistance; Antibiotic susceptibility testing; Minimal inhibitory concentration;

   Abstract : 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.

5. 4. Prevalence and antibiotic resistance of Salmonella enterica in poultry and raw meat in the Can Tho province, Vietnam

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Biomedical Sciences and Veterinary Public Health

   Author : Oskar Nilsson; [2009]
   Keywords : salmonella; enterica; Vietnam; prevalence; Vietnam; Can Tho;

   Abstract : The aim of this study was to get an overview of prevalence and resistance patterns of Salmonella enterica in chicken as well as antibiotic use and knowledge of antibiotic resistance among farmers in the Can Tho region, Vietnam. Material was sampled on local farms and markets during six weeks in October to November of 2008. READ MORE

6. 5. Antibiotikaresistens hos bakterier isolerade från friska hundar i Sverige : indikatorbakterier E. coli & Enterococcus spp samt Staphylococcus spp isolerade från hud

   Author : Johanna Zwenson; [2007]
   Keywords : cephalosporin; antimikrobiell resistens; hund; frisk hund; antibiotika; MRSA; MRSI; E. coli;

   Abstract : Objective: To determine the frequency of antimicrobial resistance in bacteria from healthy Swedish dogs and whether they are carriers of methicillinresistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Material: Samples from skin from the perineal region and from faeces collected in the anus with cottonswab (Copan) from 299 healthy Swedish dogs. READ MORE
