Abstract
Microdilution trays (Sensititre) for antimicrobial susceptibility testing of Bacteroides fragilis has been compared for accuracy with the standard agar dilution method. The microtrays were found to be reliable for all antimicrobials tested (benzylpenicillin, clindamycin, doxycycline, chloramphenicol, fusidic acid, cefoxitin, and cephalotin) but not for metronidazole.
