VetMIC

VetMIC is an MIC-based (Minimal Inhibitory Concentration) system for antimicrobial susceptibility testing of bacteria. The antimicrobials are dried in serial twofold dilutions in microtitre plates. We provide different panel designs for clinical purposes and for monitoring programmes.

Our panels for campylobacter (VetMIC Camp ver.2) and salmonella (VetMIC Salmonella ver.1) are designed for monitoring according to EFSA recomendations.

We have available an easy to use and convenient plate reading mirror.

Basic procedure

Bacterial material from agar or broth culture is suspended and inoculated in the microtitre plates. After incubation the MIC is read as the lowest concentration inhibiting visible growth.
To ensure reproducibility and comparability of results, established quality control procedures should be followed.
