[Determination of residual antibiotic activity in cerebro-spinal fluid (author's transl)]. 1977

G Aureli, and L Curcio, and R Palminteri, and E Rigoli

A microbiological method for the determination of residual antibiotic activity in CSF is described. This disc-diffusion method, utilizing Bacillus stearotermophilus as test organism, is highly sensitive for many antibiotics, including those crossing the blood-brain barrier.
