Collaborative evaluation of the UniScept qualitative antimicrobial susceptibility test

J Clin Microbiol. 1985 Mar;21(3):293-7. doi: 10.1128/jcm.21.3.293-297.1985.

Abstract

The UniScept system (Analytab Products, Plainview, N.Y.) is a commercially prepared microdilution antimicrobial susceptibility test for the determination of qualitative susceptibility results for gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria. The system showed excellent correlation with the reference agar diffusion approach for organisms from clinical specimens and with stock and reference cultures. Intra- and interlaboratory reproducibility was high.
