Aztreonam is supplied by TM Media. 30 mcg discs of Aztreonam are utilized to determine the susceptibility of bacterial cultures to antimicrobials by the Bauer-Kirby Method. Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing (AST) is a laboratory process carried out by lab technicians to determine the most suitable antimicrobial treatment for each patient. With the advent of different antimicrobial drugs used to treat various infections, it has become essential to perform AST as a standard procedure in all microbiology labs. Clinical laboratories use different methods based on the tests they offer, such as the disk diffusion and Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) methods. The disk diffusion test is a qualitative method, and the Clinical Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI), formerly known as the National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards (NCCLS), has released detailed guidelines on disk diffusion systems.
