The MICs for 101 isolates of Neisseria gonorrhoeae obtained by Etest (AB-Biodisk, Solna, Sweden) and the agar dilution method on GC medium base supplemented with 1% Kellog's defined supplement (GCMB) were compared. The overall percent agreement (within 1 log2 dilution) between methods was greater than 97.9. The Pearson's correlation coefficients for penicillin, tetracycline, erythromycin, and ceftriaxone for the two methods were 0.98, 0.97, 0.93, and 0.93 (P = 0.001), respectively, for comparisons on GCMB. The overall percent agreement was lower when hemoglobin-supplemented GCMB was used. Etest is an attractive alternative to the agar dilution method for gonococcal antimicrobial susceptibility testing and should be further analyzed in multicenter studies.
比较了通过Etest(AB-生物盘公司,瑞典索尔纳)和琼脂稀释法在添加1%凯洛格特定添加剂(GCMB)的淋病奈瑟菌培养基基础上对101株淋病奈瑟菌分离株测定的最低抑菌浓度(MIC)。两种方法之间的总体一致百分比(在1个对数2稀释范围内)大于97.9。在GCMB上进行比较时,两种方法针对青霉素、四环素、红霉素和头孢曲松的Pearson相关系数分别为0.98、0.97、0.93和0.93(P = 0.001)。当使用添加血红蛋白的GCMB时,总体一致百分比更低。对于淋球菌抗菌药物敏感性试验,Etest是琼脂稀释法的一种有吸引力的替代方法,应在多中心研究中进一步分析。
