Includes Erratum of 12 April 2010 to M100-S20.
The supplemental information presented in this document is intended for use with the antimicrobial
susceptibility testing procedures published in the following Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute
(CLSI)--approved standards: M02-A10--Performance Standards for Antimicrobial Disk Susceptibility
Tests; Approved Standard--Tenth Edition; and M07-A8--Methods for Dilution Antimicrobial
Susceptibility Tests for Bacteria That Grow Aerobically; Approved Standard--Eighth Edition. The
standards contain information about both disk (M02) and dilution (M07) test procedures for aerobic
bacteria.
Clinicians depend heavily on information from the clinical microbiology laboratory for treatment of their
seriously ill patients. The clinical importance of antimicrobial susceptibility test results requires that these
tests be performed under optimal conditions and that laboratories have the capability to provide results for
the newest antimicrobial agents.
The tabular information presented here represents the most current information for drug selection,
interpretation, and quality control using the procedures standardized in M02 and M07. Users should
replace the tables published earlier with these new tables. (Changes in the tables since the most current
edition appear in boldface type.)
