[Various methods to assay carbenicillin activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa]. 1991

P P Litovchenko, and N V Dekhtiar, and L V Keĭsevich, and I G Lukach

It was shown that the cultures of Pseudomonas aeruginosa were sensitive to 75-100 micrograms/ml and resistant to 25-50 micrograms/ml of carbenicillin when tested by the method of serial dilutions in the synthetic medium developed by the authors and in Jorgensen's medium. The cultures were incubated for 4 and 16 hours, respectively. The data did not confirm the resistance of the cultures to 25-75 and 100 micrograms/ml carbenicillin when it was determined with the serial dilution method in Pal's medium and the disk diffusion method, respectively. The advantages of the medium developed by the authors for testing P. aeruginosa sensitivity to carbenicillin are discussed.

D011550 Pseudomonas aeruginosa A species of gram-negative, aerobic, rod-shaped bacteria commonly isolated from clinical specimens (wound, burn, and urinary tract infections). It is also found widely distributed in soil and water. P. aeruginosa is a major agent of nosocomial infection.

D003470 Culture Media Any liquid or solid preparation made specifically for the growth, storage, or transport of microorganisms or other types of cells. The variety of media that exist allow for the culturing of specific microorganisms and cell types, such as differential media, selective media, test media, and defined media. Solid media consist of liquid media that have been solidified with an agent such as AGAR or GELATIN. Media, Culture
