To determine antimicrobial agent susceptibility

MicroScan Dried Gram-Negative MIC/Combo Panels are designed for use in determining quantitative and/or qualitative antimicrobial agent susceptibility of colonies grown on solid media of rapidly growing aerobic and facultative anaerobic gram-negative bacilli. The antimicrobial susceptibility tests are miniaturizations of the broth dilution susceptibility test that have been diluted in broth and dehydrated. Various antimicrobial agents are diluted in broth to concentrations bridging the range of clinical interest. Panels are rehydrated with water after inoculation with a standardized suspension of the organism. After incubation in a non-CO2 incubator for 16-20 hours, the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) for the test organism is read by determining the lowest antimicrobial concentration showing inhibition of growth.

The MicroScan Dried Gram-Negative MIC/Combo Panel is used to determine qualitative antimicrobial agent susceptibility of colonies grown on solid media of rapidly growing aerobic gram-negative bacilli. After inoculation, panels are incubated for 16 - 20 hours at 35°C +/- 1°C in a non-CO2 incubator, and read either visually or with MicroScan instrumentation, according to the Package Insert. This particular submission is for updated susceptibility test interpretative criteria for Enterobacteriaceae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, as well as expanding Salmonella ser. Typhi interpretative criteria to all Salmonella spp. for the antimicrobial ciprofloxacin (Cp) at concentrations of 0.004 to 8 µg/mL to the test panel. Ciprofloxacin has been shown to be active in vitro against most strains of microorganisms listed below, as described in the FDA-approved package insert for this antimicrobial agent. Active in vitro and in clinical infections against: Citrobacter koseri Citrobacter freundii Enterobacter cloacae Escherichia coli Klebsiella pneumoniae Morganella morganii Proteus mirabilis Proteus vulgaris Providencia rettgeri Providencia stuartii Pseudomonas aeruginosa Salmonella ser.Typhi Serratia marcescens Shigella flexneri Shigella sonnei Active in vitro but clinical significance unknown: Enterobacter aerogenes, Klebsiella oxytoca, Salmonella enteritidis
