E Test: a novel technique for antimicrobial susceptibility testing
(Associação Paulista de Medicina - APM, 1994-12-01)
We describe the applicability of the E test (AB Biodisk Solna, Sweden), a new method for determining minimum inhibitory concentrations of antimicrobial agents against bacteria. This report is based on the literature review ...
Evaluation of three alternatives cost-effective culture media for Mycobacterium tuberculosis detection and drug susceptibility determination using the microscopic observation drug susceptibility (MODS) assay
(Elsevier, 2022)
Tuberculosis phenotypic detection assays are commonly used in low-resource countries. Therefore, reliable detection methods are crucial for early diagnosis and treatment. The microscopic observation drug susceptibility ...
MDR/XDR-TB Colour Test for drug susceptibility testing of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Northwest Ethiopia.
(Elsevier, 2019)
BACKGROUND: Appropriate-technology tests are needed for Mycobacterium tuberculosis drug-susceptibility testing (DST) in resource-constrained settings. We evaluated the MDR/XDRTB colour plate thin-layer agar test (TB-CX) ...
Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing for Enterococci
(2022)
Enterococci are major, recalcitrant nosocomial pathogens with a wide repertoire of intrinsic and acquired resistance determinants and the potential of developing resistance to all clinically available antimicrobials. As ...
Evaluation of the microscopic observation drug susceptibility assay for detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis resistance to pyrazinamide
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2011-12-01)
The microscopic observation drug susceptibility assay (MODS) was evaluated to determine susceptibility to pyrazinamide in Mycobacterium tuberculosis, and compared with the broth microdilution method (BMM), absolute ...

Validation of microscopic observation drug susceptibility testing for rapid, direct rifampicin and isoniazid drug susceptibility testing in patients receiving tuberculosis treatment
(Elsevier, 2014)
Drug susceptibility testing (DST) is often needed in patients clinically failing tuberculosis (TB) therapy. Most studies of phenotypic direct drug susceptibility tests, such as microscopic observation drug susceptibility ...
Comparison of resazurin microtiter assay performance and BACTEC MGIT 960 in the susceptibility testing of Brazilian clinical isolates of Mycobacterium tuberculosis to four first-line drugs
(Sociedade Brasileira de Microbiologia, 2013-01-01)
We assessed the performance of REMA in comparison with BACTEC MGIT 960 in the susceptibility testing of 80 Mycobacterium tuberculosis clinical isolates from Clemente Ferreira Institute against four drugs. REMA proved to ...

Microdilution procedure for antifungal susceptibility testing of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis to amphotericin B and itraconazole
(Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp), Centro de Estudos de Venenos e Animais Peçonhentos (CEVAP), 2009-01-01)
In vitro tests employing microdilution to evaluate fungal susceptibility to antifungal drugs are already standardized for fermentative yeasts. However, studies on the susceptibility of dimorphic fungi such as Paracoccidioides ...
