Positive urine cultures were processed for antimicrobial susceptibility testing on Mueller-Hinton agar plates, using the Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion method, according to the CLSI guideline (14 ). Gram-negative bacteria were evaluated against amikacin, nitrofurantoin, cotrimoxazol, cephalotin, gentamycin, ceftriaxon, nalidixic, cefixime, ciprofloxacin, tetracyclin, pipracillin and imipenem (Mast Co., England).
Cefixime
Manufactured by Mast Group
Sourced in United Kingdom
Cefixime is a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic. It is a broad-spectrum antibiotic used to treat various bacterial infections. The core function of Cefixime is to inhibit the synthesis of the bacterial cell wall, which leads to the death or inhibition of bacterial growth.

Antibiotic susceptibility of all isolates to ampicillin, amoxicillin-clavulanate, cefoxitin, cefixime, ceftazidime, ceftriaxone, cefotaxime, cefepime, ciprofloxacin, ofloxacin, nalidixic acid, aztreonam, tetracycline, gentamicin, trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole, nitrofurantoin, and imipenem (Mast Co., UK) was carried out on Muller-Hinton agar (Oxoid Co., UK) using the disk diffusion method as recommended by the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI).10
E. coli ATCC 25,922 was used as the quality control strain for antibacterial susceptibility testing. The isolates non-susceptible to ≥1 agent at least three of antibiotic categories were defined as MDR.11 (link)

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.
