Vancomycin susceptibility testing of Streptococcus pneumoniae by the E-test consistently resulted in MICs that were at the upper limit of the 1-microgram/ml susceptible category defined by current National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards guidelines and were always higher than MICs obtained by microbroth dilution. Three of five E-test results for S. pneumoniae ATCC 49619 were higher than the acceptable limits.
采用E-test法对肺炎链球菌进行万古霉素药敏试验,其MIC结果始终处于当前美国国家临床实验室标准委员会指南所定义的1微克/毫升敏感类别上限,且始终高于微量肉汤稀释法所获得的MIC。肺炎链球菌ATCC 49619的五个E-test结果中有三个高于可接受限度。
