Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: We carried out an evaluation of VITEK 2 in five UK laboratories, comparing results with 'gold standard' agar-dilution MIC data, assessing its ability to recognize resistant phenotypes and comparing results with those generated by routine antimicrobial susceptibility testing methods. METHODS: Laboratories tested a collection of 82 strains selected on the basis of their challenging and characterized...
