Abstract

The Sensititre broth microdilution antibiotic susceptibility testing system was found to be comparable to a reference broth dilution method. Of 3,194 minimum inhibitory concentration data pairs, 93.9% were within the acceptable +/- 1-log2 dilution range. Only rare (0.6%) very major errors were found between methods.
