The culture medium must first be inoculated with a standardized inoculum (EUCAST recommendation: McFarland 0.5) of a fresh pure culture of the bacterial strain to be tested. After 24 hours of incubation, growth is checked, the inhibition zones around the test discs are measured, and compared with the clinical breakpoints for the different antibiotics tested to determine susceptibility (S - Susceptible to standard exposure, I - Intermediate, R - Resistant). The diameter of the inhibition zones corresponds to the susceptibility of the tested bacterial strain to the antibiotic concentration at the edge of the inhibition zone.\u003cbr style=\"box-sizing: border-box\"\u003e\u003cbr style=\"box-sizing: border-box\"\u003eYou can find various service documents, such as templates with inhibition zone limits for easy evaluation of the agar diffusion test, a collection of guidelines, and application videos in our\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/aurosan.de\/de\/mediathek\/fuer-kunden\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; text-underline-position: from-font; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none; color: rgba(0, 114, 198, 1)\"\u003emedia library\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003cbr style=\"box-sizing: border-box\"\u003e\u003cbr style=\"box-sizing: border-box\"\u003eContents and Storage:\u003cbr style=\"box-sizing: border-box\"\u003eCartridges each with 50 test discs.\u003cbr style=\"box-sizing: border-box\"\u003eStore at 2-8°C.\u003cbr style=\"box-sizing: border-box\"\u003e\u003cbr style=\"box-sizing: border-box\"\u003eNote: Cartridges of the BD system are only compatible with BD dispensers (Becton Dickinson).\u003cbr style=\"box-sizing: border-box\"\u003e\u003cbr style=\"box-sizing: border-box\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 13.3333px; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 1)\"\u003eAs an alternative to agar diffusion, we recommend agar dilution, which can be semi-automated, e.g., with the\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/aurosan.de\/images\/mediathek\/produktinformationen-urologie-gynaekologie\/MICRONAUT-Produktinformationen.pdf\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; text-underline-position: from-font; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none; color: rgba(0, 114, 198, 1)\"\u003eMICRONAUT system\u003c\/a\u003e, and for which there are increasingly more and more accurate clinical breakpoints.
