Isolates with VME or ME (by any commercial BMD test) and their corresponding MICs (µg/ml)
| Isolates | BMD reference standarda | Sensititre™ (VME n = 5, ME n = 0) | SensiTest™ (VME n = 3, ME = 0) | UMIC (VME n = 2, ME = 1) | Micronaut (VME n = 3, ME = 0) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pseudomonas aeruginosa | 0.5 | 0.5 | ≤ 0.25 | 4 | 2 |
| Pseudomonas aeruginosa | 8 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 |
| Pseudomonas aeruginosa | 64 | 4 | > 16 | > 64 | 0,5 |
| Pseudomonas aeruginosa | 64 | 16 | 1 | 4 | 4 |
| Acinetobacter junii | 4 | 2 | 4 | 4 | 4 |
| Escherichia coli | 4 | 2 | 4 | 8 | 4 |
| Escherichia coli | 4 | 2 | 4 | 4 | 4 |
| Klebsiella pneumoniae | 16 | 0.25 | 0.5 | 0.25 | 1 |
VME very major error, ME major error
