Reliability of two novel methods, Alamar and E test, for detection of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.

S M Novak1, J Hindler, D A Bruckner.   

Abstract

E test strips (AB Biodisk, Culver City, Calif.) tested on 2% NaCl-supplemented Mueller-Hinton agar and Alamar panels (Alamar, Sacramento, Calif.) correctly characterized 127 of 127 methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus isolates and 100 of 100 methicillin-susceptible S. aureus isolates. These overnight antimicrobial susceptibility test systems reliably detect this clinically important resistance.
