20 The EUCAST Development Laboratory Developing EUCAST breakpoint table v 8.0 (published January 2018). Enterobacterales breakpoints validated for Plesiomonas shigelloides Breakpoints for Aeromonas spp. (Poster P0159) Colistin susceptibility testing evaluating commercially available methods for broth microdilution, agar dilution, gradient testing, disk diffusion. Publication in CMI. Several large validation field trials (multi-center studies). Rapid AST directly from blood culture bottles (eposters O0746 and O0746, Poster P1797). Disk diffusion methodology for rapidly growing anaerobes (Poster P0160 and P0161). Survey of the quality of antibiotic disks from nine manufacturers. To be submitted to CMI April (Poster P0156) Developing a substitute for fresh mechanically defibrinated horse blood in MH-F plates. (Poster P0154) Observerships for colleagues eager to learn about EUCAST methods and development.
