Title: [Bacteriologic detection and sensitivity determination combined: a rapid test for use in practice?]. Author: van Duijkeren E, Stins MJ. Journal: Tijdschr Diergeneeskd; 1998 Sep 01; 123(17):502-5. PubMed ID: 9746923. Abstract: In this investigation the results obtained with a testkit for detecting bacteria and their antibiotic sensitivity (ABcheck, Vétoquinol) were compared with those obtained using standard bacteriological procedures. Ten urine samples, ten skin samples, and ten cerumen samples were examined in parallel. The results indicate that the testkit is not reliable with respect to whether antibiotics should be administered and with respect to which antibiotics should be used.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
