Abstract:
:The development of diagnostic susceptibility tests for CEM-101, a new fluoroketolide, was addressed by structured studies to determine the optimal disk diffusion test concentration and effects of various testing conditions or supplements and to establish the quality control (QC) ranges for reference broth microdilution tests. The 15-microg CEM-101 disk was selected, and MIC ranges for a total of four QC organisms were proposed, with only three doubling dilutions each that included 95.6 to 99.7% of values reported from the eight-laboratory investigation.
