  • Title: [Rapid microbiological method of determining the gentamicin, sisomicin and kanamycin concentrations in patients' serum].
    Author: Goncharskaia TIa, Koroleva VG, Umnova LV, Bogomolova NS, Treskina OS.
    Journal: Antibiotiki; 1981 May; 26(5):367-70. PubMed ID: 6789763.
    Abstract:
    A modification of the microbiological agar-diffusion method for rapid determination of gentamicin, sisomycin and kanamycin levels in the blood serum of patients is described. The decrease in the time for determination of the antibiotic levels in the serum specimens with the modified method was provided by the use of a higher inoculation dose of the test microbe, higher levels of the incubation temperature and an enriched nutrient medium. The assay time was decreased from 18 to 3--4 hours as compared to the routine agar-diffusion method.
