[Trial of different nutrient media in studying the antibiotic sensitivity of brucellae].

The possible use of the Unimicon-s nutrient medium for determination of antibiotic sensitivity of Brucella by the methods of serial dilutions in dishes and agar diffusion with paper disks was studied. Previously this method was not used in manipulations with Brucella. The results indicated that the dry Unimicon-s nutrient medium was applicable for determination of Brucella antibiotic sensitivity. It was shown that the agar diffusion method with the use of paper disks may be recommended for determination of antibiotic sensitivity of Brucella. The optimal time for recording the results of the laboratory assays is 48 hours.
