Eight rules for improving the quality of papers on the antimicrobial susceptibility of bacteria isolated from aquatic animals
Smith, Peter (Inter-Research Science Publisher, 2020-04-30)The methods for antimicrobial susceptibility testing of bacteria, although relatively simple, are not robust. As a consequence, if the data generated in such tests are to be commensu- rate, all susceptibility tests must ... -
Influence of incubation time on antimicrobial susceptibility testing of pathogenic Vibrio anguillarum and Vibrio vulnificus isolated from fish
Baron, Sandrine; Ceccarelli, Daniela; Dalsgaard, Inger; Granier, Sophie A.; Haenen, Olga; Jansson, Eva; Madsen, Lone; Jouy, Eric; Kempf, Isabelle; Larvor, Emeline; Morin, Thierry; Testerink, Joop; Veldman, Kees; Mouritsen, Kári Karbech; Van Gelderen, Betty; Voorbergen-Laarman, Michal; Säker, Eva; Blomkvist, Eva; Smith, Peter (Elsevier, 2020-07-15)A multi-laboratory study was performed to investigate the most suitable incubation time for susceptibility tests of fish pathogens Vibrio anguillarum and Vibrio vulnificus performed at 28 degrees C. An isolate set consisting ... -
The performance of antimicrobial susceptibility testing programmes relevant to aquaculture and aquaculture products
Smith, Peter (Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), 2019)Antimicrobial susceptibility testing of bacteria isolated from aquatic animals and their environments may be performed either as part of a monitoring or surveillance programme or to provide guidance for clinical treatments ... -
A review of the shortcomings in the testing methods used and reporting of data in the literature on antimicrobial susceptibility
Smith, Peter; Egan, Sarah (European Association of Fish Pathologists, 2020-06-02)The susceptibility test protocols used in 186 published papers that reported 203 studies of the antimicrobial susceptibility of non-cholera Vibrio spp were examined. Only a very small percentage of the studies provided ... -
Setting epidemiological cut-off values for bacteria isolated from aquatic animals: a toolbox for designing a 96-well plate for microdilution MIC assays
Baron, Sandrine; Smith, Peter; Verner-Jeffreys, David W. (European Association of Fish Pathologists, 2020-06-02)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 ... -
Standard protocols for antimicrobial susceptibility testing of Vibrionaceae isolated from aquatic animals
Smith, Peter; Egan, Sarah (European Association of Fish Pathologists, 2018-07-18)A review of the relevant literature has shown that it is safe to recommend that the antimicrobial susceptibility of the species of the Vibrionaceae most commonly isolated from aquatic animals can be established using ...
