Validation of a modified rapid test to detect the cefazolin inoculum effect in methicillin-susceptible <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> from bloodstream infections in hospitals from North and Latin America
The modified nitrocefin rapid test exhibited a robust performance to detect the CzIE in isolates from the Americas. This methodology is inexpensive and can be implemented in clinical microbiology laboratories around the world, including those with limited resources.
