AmpC/ESBL differentiation disk
We combined various inhibitors to differentiate between AmpC-producing bacteria and ESBL-producing bacteria!
The ESBL-producing bacteria, which are resistant to commonly used cephalosporin antibiotics, are a growing concern as they are increasingly becoming resistant each year and require attention. Additionally, there are fears that they may spread via plasmids, making them important resistant bacteria in infection control. Since ESBL-producing bacteria can be inhibited by clavulanic acid, inhibition tests are used to differentiate them from other resistant bacteria. AmpC-producing bacteria, which are similar resistant bacteria, can be inhibited by boronic acid and cloxacillin, and unlike ESBL-producing bacteria, there are concerns that cephamycins may also be ineffective against them. Our company offers an "AmpC/ESBL differentiation disk" that combines various inhibitors for the differentiation of these resistant bacteria.
