Abstract
There are very limited commercial methods available to clinical laboratories for cefiderocol minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) testing. The Compact Antimicrobial Susceptibility Panel (ComASP) Cefiderocol method includes iron-depleted cation-adjusted Mueller-Hinton broth, which eliminates variability in cefiderocol MIC results based on iron levels. The lyophilized multi-well format of ComASP also provides for room temperature storage. In comparison to what an individual lab may do for method verification, this multi-site, multi-isolate study provides a robust evaluation and greater assurance to clinical microbiologists of the method's accurate and reproducible performance.
