Antibiotic Susceptibility Testing Controls

using Microbiologics Kwik-Stik 

Microbiologics have a comprehensive range of organisms for the control of antibiotic susceptibility testing and antibiotic resistance phenotyping.     The Kwik-Stik format presents  lyophilized microorganisms organism, an ampoule of hydrating fluid and inoculating swab in a single user-friendly unit with no hazardous packaging such as glass ampoules.   Traceable to reference cultures and with online Certificate of Analysis to provide detailed strain information  Kwik-Stik is supplied ready to use.

Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing Control Strains 

Microbiologics Kwik-Stiks  offer strains recommended as controls in antimicrobial susceptibility testing to monitor test performance and quality of the materials used.  The strains listed are specifically recommended by the European Committee on Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing (EUCAST), for both the routine testing and the extended quality control for detection of resistance mechanisms with disk diffusion.
