dc.description.abstract | A workshop was held at the EAFP meeting in
Porto to initiate discussion on the design of
studies that could generate the data needed to
set epidemiological cut-off values appropriate
for application to antimicrobial susceptibility data for bacteria isolated from aquatic
animals. To set such cut-off values, consortia
of at least five laboratories are needed. The
work required from individual laboratories,
although not a relatively large number, was
the susceptibility testing of approximately 30
isolates of each species. What is essential is,
however, that the activities of the laboratories,
and the experimental protocols that they use,
are coordinated. A major aim of this workshop
was to encourage the formation of informal
groups of laboratories that could form consortia and coordinate their activities to produce
the data needed to generate cut-off values
for various species that were of interest to
them. All laboratories with an interest in the
possibility of joining such a consortia were,
and are still, invited to contact Sandrine Baron
(Sandrine.BARON@anses.fr) who has agreed
to facilitate this activity | en_IE |
