Comparison of Automated Broth Microdilution System (Vitek-2) and Agar Dilution Method in the Detection of Fosfomycin Susceptibility in E. coli and K. pneumoniae Isolates Causing Urinary Tract Infection

Comparison of Automated Broth Microdilution System (Vitek-2) and Agar Dilution Method in the Detection of Fosfomycin Susceptibility in E. coli and K. pneumoniae Isolates Causing Urinary Tract Infection

Introduction: Agar dilution is the reference method recommended by the European Committee on Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing (EUCAST) for the detection of fosfomycin susceptibility in Gram-negative bacteria. However, this method is difficult to apply routinely in microbiology laboratories. For...
