ECCMID 2020 Scientific Poster: Cephalexin MIC Results for Enterobacterales

 

Cephalexin MIC Results for Enterobacterales Using EUCAST Breakpoints on MicroScan Dried Gram Negative MIC Panels

Background

A multicenter study was performed to evaluate the accuracy of cephalexin on a MicroScan Dried Gram-negative MIC (MSDGN) Panel when compared to a frozen ISO/CLSI broth microdilution reference panel.

Materials/Methods

An evaluation was conducted at three U.S. sites by comparing MIC values obtained using the MSDGN to MICs utilizing an ISO/CLSI broth microdilution reference panel. A total of 450 Enterobacterales clinical isolates were tested using the turbidity and Prompt® methods of inoculation during the efficacy phase. A subset of 12 organisms was tested on MSDGN panels at each site during reproducibility. MSDGN panels were incubated at 35 ± 1ºC and read on the MicroScan WalkAway system, the MicroScan autoSCAN-4 instrument, and read visually. Read times for the MSDGN panels were at 16-20 hours. Frozen reference panels were prepared according to ISO/CLSI methodology, incubated for 16-20 hours and read visually. All frozen reference panels were incubated at 35 ± 2ºC for 16-20 hours and read visually. EUCAST breakpoints (mg/L) used for interpretation of MIC results were: Enterobacterales ≤ 16 S, > 16 R.

Results

Essential and categorical agreement when compared to frozen reference panel results, for all isolates tested in efficacy as follows:

Conclusion

This multicenter study showed that cephalexin MIC results for Enterobacterales obtained with the MSDGN panel correlate well with MICs obtained using frozen reference panels using EUCAST interpretive criteria.
