Harmonization of antimicrobial susceptibility testing breakpoints in Europe: implications for reporting intermediate susceptibility
J Antimicrob Chemother.
2010 Feb.
Abstract
Harmonization of antimicrobial susceptibility testing breakpoints across Europe has resulted in the reintroduction of the intermediate susceptibility categorization into the BSAC susceptibility testing method for a wide range of antibiotic pathogen test pairs. The implications of this, for laboratories and prescribers, are discussed.
