This article is a comprehensive review of the published activities of the Microbiology Subcommittee of the USP Committee of Revision for the 1995-2000 revision cycle. The activities of this revision cycle were designed to position USP activities in microbiology that will be useful as technology advances. In addition to reviewing the changes accomplished, this article discusses the rationale for many of the changes and some background information on new initiatives underway. Where appropriate, changes in the USP that did not fall under the direct purview of the MCB Subcommittee but of interest to the microbiology community are also discussed.
