| The zone of inhibition around the disk shown in the photograph has been measured at 23 mm. Based on this result, you should: | View Page |
| The prevalence of ESBL's may be underestimated because NCCLS has set resistance break-points too low. | View Page |
| Illustrated in this photograph is a quadrant plate containing brain heart infusion agar plate supplemented with 6 ug/ml of vancomycin. The right upper quadrant was inoculated with the test strain of Enterococcus faecium. The presence of growth in the inoculated quadrant indicates resistance to vancomycin. | View Page |
| Calibration Curve Standards are also used to determine the linearity of the testing instrument. This is done by plotting a calibration or standard curve. Most testing instruments must be operated within a linear range. The Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute or NCCLS defines linearity as “the measure of the degree to which a curve approximates a straight line.The examples to the right show linearity because a change along the x-axis shows a corresponding change along the y-axis, whether the x-value is low or high.
