  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. The influence of antimicrobial agents on the development of antibiotic resistance in the vaginal bacterial flora of artificially inseminated mares : a study on mares in a stud environment

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Clinical Sciences

    Author : Elin Wilén; [2021]
    Keywords : antibiotics; antimicrobial resistance; bacteriology; breeding; equine reproduction; reproductive techniques; semen extender; stud farm;

    Abstract : In Sweden and in many other countries, artificial insemination (AI) is frequently used in horse breeding. The technology makes it possible to use genetic material from horses in different geographical locations in an effective way, minimizing the risk of infection or even injury to both horses and stud personnel.

  6. 5. Antibiotic resistance associated with bacteria in irrigation water : a case study of irrigation ponds in Southern Sweden

    University essay from SLU/Plant Breeding and Biotechnology (until 121231)

    Author : Maria Grudén; [2013]
    Keywords : Animal husbandry; Enterobacteriaceae; ESBL; Etest; exogenous isolation; irrigation water; hygiene; standards in water; Water quality;

    Abstract : The focus of this project was to characterize the occurrence of ESBL-­‐producing bacteria in two irrigation water ponds in Southern Sweden. Samples were taken from two ponds nearby each other, from which analyses were made based on levels of community and individual isolates. READ MORE
