Showing the sensitivity (%) and specificity (%) of each EDTA based assay.
| EDTA (ethylenediaminetetra-acetic acid) assay | Sensitivity (%) | Specificity (%) | Remark |
|---|---|---|---|
| CDT (Combined Disk Test) | 96.7 | 89.6 | Less efficient, although more recommendable than CMR |
| CMR (Colistin MIC Reduction) | 96.7 | 83.3 | Less efficient than CDT |
| MRPNP (Modified rapid polymyxin Nordmann Poirel) | 96.7 | 100 | Better than CDT and CMT |
| Alteration of Zeta Potential | 95.1 | 100 | Second to MRPNP in terms of efficiency |
