The following four bacterial standard strains from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC, Manassas, VA, USA) were used: Haemophilus influenzae ATCC 49247, Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 29213, Streptococcus pneumoniae ATCC 49619, and Streptococcus pyogenes ATCC 19615. Cultivation and assay media (broth/agar) were Mueller–Hinton (MH) complemented by Haemophilus Tested Medium (H. influenzae), MH (S. aureus), and Brain Heart Infusion (S. pneumoniae and S. pyogenes). The pH of the broths was equilibrated to a final value of 7.6 using Trizma base (Sigma-Aldrich, Praha, Czech Republic). All microbial strains and cultivation media were purchased from Oxoid (Basingstoke, UK).
Stock cultures of bacterial strains were cultivated in broth medium at 37 °C for 24 h prior to testing. For the preparation of inoculum, the turbidity of the bacterial suspension was adjusted to 0.5 McFarland standard using a Densi-La-Meter II (Lachema, Brno, Czech Republic) to obtain a final concentration of 108 CFU/mL.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
