Appendix B: 2008 Canadian Integrated Program for Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance (CIPARS) annual report – Minimal inhibitory concentration tables
Canadian Integrated Program for Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance (CIPARS)
Appendix B - Minimal Inhibitory Concentration Tables
The following information is important for the interpretation of tables presenting results on the distribution of minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs).
- Roman numerals I to IV indicate the ranking of human medicine importance as outlined by the Veterinary Drugs Directorate, Health Canada.
- The unshaded fields indicate the range tested for each antimicrobial in the plate configuration.
- Red numbers indicate the percentage of isolates that were resistant to the antimicrobial according to the predefined resistance breakpoint.
- Numbers to the right of the highest concentration in the tested range (i.e. red numbers in shaded fields) represent the percentage of isolates with growth in all wells within the tested range, indicating that the actual MICs were greater than the tested range of concentrations.
- Numbers at the lowest concentration in the tested range (i.e. blue numbers at the far left in unshaded fields) represent the percentage of isolates susceptible to the antimicrobial at the indicated or lower concentrations.
- Solid vertical lines represent resistance breakpoints.
- Dotted vertical lines represent susceptibility breakpoints.
- MIC 50 = MIC at which 50% of isolates were inhibited by a specific antimicrobial.
- MIC 90 = MIC at which 90% of isolates were inhibited by a specific antimicrobial.
- %R = Percentage of isolates that were resistant to a specific antimicrobial.
