Article Title: Prevalence of colistin-resistant Enterobacteriaceae isolated from clinical samples in Africa: a systematic review and meta-analysis

doi: 10.1186/s12879-025-10826-5

Figure Lengend Snippet: Summary of studies included on colistin-resistant Enterobacteriaceae species in Africa

Article Snippet: As recommended jointly by the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) and the European Committee on Antimicrobial Susceptibility Test (EUCAST), broth microdilution (BMD) method is now the only gold standard for determining colistin minimum inhibition concentration (MIC) values [ ].

Article Title: Determination of MIC Quality Control Parameters for Exebacase, a Novel Lysin with Antistaphylococcal Activity

doi: 10.1128/JCM.03117-20

Figure Lengend Snippet: Distribution of exebacase broth microdilution MIC test results against ATCC QC strains S. aureus ATCC 29213 (A) and E. faecalis ATCC 29212 (B). The medium lots are indicated as follows: blue, medium lot 1; white, medium lot 2; red, medium lot 3.

Article Snippet: The results of this multilaboratory study demonstrated that the new exebacase broth microdilution MIC method developed by ContraFect using CAMHB supplemented with 25% horse serum and 0.5 mM DTT produced acceptable intralaboratory and interlaboratory reproducibility of MIC results with replicate testing of CLSI QC reference strains S. aureus ATCC 29213 and E. faecalis ATCC 29212.

Article Snippet: The MICs of all the 24 tested isolates were determined to be greater than 0.1 μ g/mL (0.1 to 0.6 μ g/mL) using the Middlebrook 7H9 broth microdilution method and greater than 0.3 μ g/mL (0.4 to 1.8 μ g/mL) using the L-J proportion method ( ).
