Modification of the double-disk test for detection of enterobacteriaceae producing extended-spectrum and AmpC beta-lactamases.

Journal of clinical microbiology - 1 Aug 2003

Abstract excerpt

Detection of extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs) in AmpC-producing Enterobacteriaceae is problematic. A modification of the double-disk test (MDDT) has been developed for successful detection of ESBLs in gram-negative bacilli producing well-characterized beta-lactamases as well as 212 clinical isolates of Enterobacter cloacae, Enterobacter aerogenes, Serratia marcescens, and Citrobacter freundii. MDDT...
