Comparative Analysis of Bacillus cereus Group Isolates' Resistance Using Disk Diffusion and Broth Microdilution and the Correlation between Antimicrobial Resistance Phenotypes and Genotypes.

Abstract excerpt

Bacillus cereus group isolates (n = 85) were screened for phenotypic resistance to 18 antibiotics using broth microdilution and CLSI M45 Bacillus spp. breakpoints. The susceptibility to 9 out of 18 antibiotics was also tested using disk diffusion method and M100 Staphylococcus spp. breakpoints when available. Overall, a high prevalence of susceptibility to clinically relevant antibiotics was identified using...
