Scope: What is ISO 20776 ‑ 1 about? ISO 20776 discusses susceptibility testing of infectious agents and evaluation of the performance of antimicrobial susceptibility test devices. ISO 20776 ‑ 1 describes one reference method, broth microdilution, for the determination of minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs). The MIC can be a guide for the clinician and reflects the activity of the drug under the described test conditions, by considering other factors, such as drug pharmacology, pharmacokinetics, or bacterial resistance mechanisms. This allows the categorisation of bacteria as “susceptible...
