Performance of disc diffusion and gradient strip test on different Mueller–Hinton agar media plates and ComASP® and Bruker UMIC® Cefiderocol Microdilution Panels for cefiderocol susceptibility testing in carbapenem-resistant <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa
The commercial ComASP panel may be used for cefiderocol testing of P. aeruginosa clinical isolates in diagnostic laboratories, ideally in combination with another method, such as the EUCAST-based DD. However, the standard manual BMD should still be performed to confirm the result when MICs are close to the breakpoint.
