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, inhibition zones around the test discs are measured, and compared with clinical breakpoints for the different antibiotics tested to determine susceptibility (S - Susceptible at standard exposure, I - Susceptible with increased exposure, 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 boundaries 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?servicematerial-diagnostik\" 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\"\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"box-sizing: border-box\"\u003eContent and Storage:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul style=\"box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 13.3333px; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 1)\"\u003e\n\n\u003cli style=\"box-sizing: border-box\"\u003eCartridges with 50 test discs each.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli style=\"box-sizing: border-box\"\u003eStore at 2-8°C.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 13.3333px; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 1)\"\u003e\u003cbr style=\"box-sizing: border-box\"\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"box-sizing: border-box\"\u003eNote:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eMAST system cartridges are only compatible with MAST dispensers.\u003cbr style=\"box-sizing: border-box\"\u003e\u003cbr style=\"box-sizing: border-box\"\u003eAs an alternative to agar diffusion, we recommend agar dilution, which can be partially automated with systems such as the\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)\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eMICRONAUT system\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e. There are increasingly more and more precise clinical breakpoints for this method, meaning that since EUCAST 10.0 (2020), certain antibiotics can only be tested using agar dilution and no longer by agar diffusion (!).
