Abstract
A rapid 5-h minimal inhibitory concentration procedure and a minimal bactericidal concentration procedure are described for testing Pseudomonas aeruginosa against gentamicin, tobramycin, amikacin, and carbenicillin. The rapid test results were demonstrated to correlate with the conventional tube dilution procedure.
