Testing was performed in RPMI 1640–2%, and the paired readings on the 209 isolates were said to be in agreement if they were within 1 dilution of each other. The microtiter plates were visually read before and after agitation. Spectrophotometric readings were made after agitation of the plates. Spec-80 and Spec-50 corresponded to the lowest drug concentrations reducing control growth by 80 and 50%, respectively.
