This panel of Neisseria gonorrhoeae isolates were chosen to represent a diversity of antimicrobial susceptibility results for drugs that are used to treat infections.
This panel of Neisseria gonorrhoeae isolates were chosen to represent a diversity of antimicrobial susceptibility results for drugs that are used to treat infections. This panel is not
recommended to be used for gradient Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing (AST) validations
due to known discrepancies between agar dilution MICs and some MICs obtained
from commercial MIC Gradient tests at either end of the testing dilution range.
Panel ID: GC
MIC results provided were determined by agar dilution.
MIC results for each antimicrobial agent for an isolate may commonly be ± 1 log2 (doubling dilution) different than what is posted on the FDA & CDC AR Bank website because this is the normal technical variability of antimicrobial susceptibility testing (see J. H. Jorgensen. 1993. J Clin Microbiol. Vol 31[11]: 2841-2844).
