Kirby-Bauer Disk Diffusion Susceptibility Test Protocol

Downloaded from byIP: : Wed, 29 Aug 2018 12:55:47 American Society for Microbiology 2016 1 Kirby-Bauer disk Diffusion Susceptibility Test Protocol | | Created: Tuesday, 08 December 2009 Author Jan Hudzicki Information History The publication on penicillin by Alexander Fleming in 1928 is a milestone in the history of medicine. As more antimicrobial compounds were discovered, it was predicted that infectious diseases would be eliminated through the use of these antimicrobials (7). Unfortunately, the development of bacterial resistance to these antimicrobials quickly diminished this optimism and resulted in the need for physicians to request the microbiology lab to test a patient s pathogen against various concentrations of a given antimicrobial to determine Susceptibility or resistance to that drug.

Determination of bacterial resistance to antimicrobials is an important part of the management of infections in patients. The disk diffusion method of Kirby and Bauer has been standardized and is a viable alternative to broth dilution methods for laboratories without the resources to utilize the newer automated methods for broth microdilution
