Variables Affecting the Results
of Sensitivity Testing
• Components of the medium:Examples:
* PABA antagonizes Sulfonamides
* Ca2+ antagonizes Tetracyclines
• pH of the medium:
It should be adjusted in the range 7.2 – 7.4
Acidity Activity of tetracycline and methicillin
Activity of Aminoglycosides and Erythromycin
1. Medium1. MediumMueller – Hinton Agar
• Should be standardized to be 105 – 106 cfu / ml.• This can be achieved by visual matching the turbidity of the broth culture with a 0.5 McFerland Standard Suspension.
• The apparent sensitivity of the organism is inversely proportional to the inoculum size. • A resistant mutant is much more likely to emerge in large population.
2. Inoculum Size2. Inoculum Size
3. Incubation condition3. Incubation condition
• IncubationPeriod:
The usual incubation time for sensitivty testing should be16 -18 hrs
* Sometimes, the microorganism is not killed but only inhibited upon short exposure to antimicrobial agents* The longer the incubation period, the greater chance for resistant mutants to emerge.
• IncubationTemperature:
Should be adjusted at Should be adjusted at 3535ooCC..N.B: N.B: Several antimicrobial agents may loose their Several antimicrobial agents may loose their

* The diameter of the inhibition zones are * The diameter of the inhibition zones are directly proportional to the susceptibility of directly proportional to the susceptibility of the microorganism to the antibiotics.the microorganism to the antibiotics.
