Screening for cephalosporin-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae with the Kirby-Bauer disk susceptibility test.

I R Friedland1, S Shelton, G H McCracken.   

Abstract

Kirby-Bauer disk susceptibility tests with five standard cephalosporin disks were performed on 23 penicillin-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae isolates for which ceftriaxone MICs were 0.125 to 4 micrograms/ml. Cefuroxime disk inhibition zone diameters distinguished clearly isolates for which ceftriaxone MICs were > or = 2 micrograms/ml from more susceptible strains, whereas cephalothin, ceftizoxime, cefotaxime, and ceftriaxone disks distinguished these isolates less clearly than the cefuroxime disk did.
