CHAPTER 11 Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing of Neisseria meningitidis, Haemophilus influenzae, and Streptococcus pneumoniae Each laboratory must decide their own level of susceptibility testing to provide the essential data for public health decision making relevant to that laboratory’s situation. N. meningitidis, H. influenzae, and S. pneumoniae have all been associated with treatment or chemoprophylaxis failures due to strains resistant to or with reduced susceptibility to ...

GUIDELINE 2.1. LABORATORY METHODOLOGIES FOR BACTERIAL ANTIMICROBIAL SUSCEPTIBILITY TESTING SUMMARY Historically, medical practitioners and veterinarians selected antimicrobials to treat bacterial infectious diseases based primarily on past clinical experiences. However, with the increase in bacterial resistance to traditionally used antimicrobials, it has become more difficult for clinicians to empirically select an appropriate antimicrobial agent. As a result, in-vitro antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) of the relevant ...
Antibiotic Susceptibility Testing MODULE Microbiology 12 ANTIBIOTIC SUSCEPTIBILITY Notes TESTING 12.1 INTRODUCTION Once we have identified the bacterium which is causing the infection we need to find out the antibiotics that would be effective against it. This is done by antibiotic sensitivity testing. there are various methods which can be employed for this purpose OBJECTIVES After reading this chapter, you will be able to ...

MODULE Bacterial Identification Tests Microbiology 11 Notes BACTERIAL IDENTIFICATION TESTS 11.1 INTRODUCTION In the previous chapter we have discussed various methods of isolation of bacteria. The bacteria thus isolated needs to be further identified to genus and species level. The identification is required so as to cure the illness or the infection caused due to the bacteria by using appropriate antibiotics. Identification also holds ...
