Agreement of quantitative and qualitative antimicrobial susceptibility testing methodologies: The case of enrofloxacin and avian pathogenic Escherichia coliAgreement • October 28th, 2020
Objectives: Avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC) is the causal agent of colibacillosis, one of the most common bacterial infections in the poultry sector. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) is essential for rational and prudent antimicrobial therapy. Subsequently, uniformity in test results from the various testing methodologies used in diagnostic laboratories is pivotal. The aim of this study was therefore to evaluate the agreement between different antimicrobial susceptibility testing methods in determining fluoroquinolone resistance in APEC.
