The panel consists of 14 isolates with a selection of mutations in the resistance determinants for CIP, gyrA and parC. It is designed for diagnostic test developers to test gene specific tests for ciprofloxacin resistance/susceptibility based on these genes.
Panel ID: NCIP
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).
