Abstract
Microdilution susceptibility test panels were independently read by 2 different technologists. One or more discrepancies between readers occurred with 5% of the 25,022 recorded minimal inhibitory concentrations, but only 0.4% of the tests varied by .gtoreq. 2 dilution intervals.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
