Title: [Rapid determination of the minimal inhibitory concentration of an antibiotic by measuring bacterial ATP (author's transl)]. Author: Fauchère JL, Simonet M, Descamps P, Véron M. Journal: Ann Microbiol (Paris); 1982; 133(2):293-9. PubMed ID: 7044219. Abstract: The minimal inhibitory concentrations (MIC) of gentamicin for ten strains of Enterobacteriaceae were determined by measuring the bacterial ATP (adenosine triphosphate). ATP was measured by chemiluminescence on 4-h growth cultures which included gentamicin. The MIC results obtained by this method were equivalent to those found with the technique of dilution in liquid medium.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
