Comparison of susceptibility test methods to detect penicillin susceptibility in Streptococcus pneumoniae isolates

The increasing prevalence of penicillin-resistant Streptococuus pneumoniae urges for fast and accurate susceptibility testing methods. This study evaluated the comparability of three commonly used techniques; disk diffusion, E-test and agar dilution, to detect penicillin susceptibility in clinical i...
