Microdilution Technique for Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing of Haemophilus influenzae

James H Jorgensen 1,2, Jean C Lee 1,2
PMCID: PMC429430  PMID: 1082292

Abstract

A microdilution method incorporating the use of color-defined growth end points was compared with a conventional broth tube dilution procedure for susceptibility testing of Haemophilus influenzae with ampicillin and chloramphenicol. The microdilution method allowed rapid performance of dilution susceptibility tests with easily defined end points.
