Bioassay for determination of vancomycin in the presence of rifampin or aminoglycosides

C N Walker. Antimicrob Agents Chemother. 1980 Apr.

Abstract

Vancomycin determinations were performed in the presence of an aminoglycoside or rifampin. A previously reported bioassay method was modified by using a rifampin-resistant strain and increasing the NaCl concentration in the minimal salts-glucose assay agar from 0.2 to 6.0%.
