3 Reading zones The following instructions for reading inhibition zone diameters are part of the EUCAST disk diffusion method. Zone edges should be read at the point of complete inhibition as judged by the naked eye with the plate held about 30 cm from the eye (for exceptions and specific reading instructions, see slides 15-23). Measure zone diameters with a ruler, calliper or an automated zone reader. 3
4 Reading zones Read MH plates from the back against a dark background illuminated with reflected light. Read MH-F plates from the front with the lid removed illuminated with reflected light. 4
5 Colonies within zone In case of distinct colonies within zones, subculture the colonies, check purity and repeat test if necessary. Colonies that are not contaminations should be taken into account when reading zones. No zone or no zone Reading of zones with colonies within the zone. 5
6 Colonies within zone In case of distinct colonies within zones, subculture the colonies, check purity and repeat test if necessary. Colonies that are not contaminations should be taken into account when reading zones. E. coli with ESBL H. influenzae with PBP mutations No zone No zone Reading of zones with colonies within the zone. 6
7 Swarming Read inhibition of growth and ignore swarming (most often seen for Proteus spp). 7
8 Double zones Check purity and repeat test if necessary. Colonies that are not contaminations should be taken into account when reading zones. Reading of double zones. 8
9 Fuzzy zone edges Enterobacteriaceae Hold the plate against a dark background about 30 cm from the naked eye and estimate where the zone edge is. Do not hold the plate up to light (transmitted light) or use a magnifying glass. Reading of zones with fuzzy zone edges for Enterobacteriaceae. 9
10 Fuzzy zone edges Staphylococci Hold the plate against a dark background about 30 cm from the naked eye and estimate where the zone edge is. Do not hold the plate up to light (transmitted light) or use a magnifying glass. Reading of zones with fuzzy zone edges for staphylococci. 10
11 Fuzzy zone edges S. pneumoniae Small colonies that are visible when the plate is hold about 30 cm from the naked eye should be taken into account when reading zones. The presence of small colonies close to the zone edge may be related to excess humidity in the MH-F media, and may be reduced by drying the plates prior to use. Reading of zones with fuzzy zone edges for S. pneumoniae. 11
12 Growth or haemolysis? Read inhibition of growth and not inhibition of haemolysis. It is sometimes difficult to distinguish between haemolysis and growth. β-haemolysins diffuse in agar. β-haemolysis is therefore usually free from growth. α-haemolysins do not diffuse. There is often growth within areas of α-haemolysis. Zone edges accompanied with α-haemolysis is most common with S. pneumoniae and β-lactam antibiotics. 12
13 β-haemolysis Tilt the plate to easier differentiate between haemolysis and growth. β-haemolysis is usually free from growth. S. pyogenes Streptococcus group C 13
14 α-haemolysis Tilt the plate to easier differentiate between haemolysis and growth. There is usually growth in the whole area of α-haemolysis. For some organisms, there is additional α-haemolysis without growth. Tilt the plate to differentiate between haemolysis and growth! 14
15 Specific reading instructions Trimethoprim and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole in general Stenotrophomonas maltophilia and trimethoprimsulfamethoxazole Enterobacteriaceae and ampicillin E. coli and mecillinam Enterococci and vancomycin S. aureus and benzylpenicillin Detection of inducible clindamycin resistance in staphylococci and streptococci 15
16 Trimethoprim and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole Follow the instructions for reading and read inner zones when double zones appear (see examples below). Ignore haze or faint growth up to the disk within a zone with otherwise clear zone edge. E. coli CoNS Moraxella Haemophilus 16
17 Stenotrophomonas maltophilia and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole Ignore growth within the inhibition zone, which is common for Stenotrophomonas maltophilia and trimethoprimsulfamethoxazole. The density of growth in the zone may vary from a fine haze to substantial growth. No zone Ignore growth and read an inhibition zone if any zone edge can be seen. = Susceptible if zone diameter 16 mm Growth up to the disk and no sign of inhibition zone = Resistant 17
18 Enterobacteriaceae and ampicillin Ignore fine growth that may appear as an inner zone on some batches of Mueller-Hinton agar. The inner zone is not seen with some batches of agar and when the outer zone is read there is no difference between batches. 18
19 E. coli and mecillinam Ignore isolated colonies within the inhibition zone. No zone 19
20 Enterococci and vancomycin Examine with transmitted light (plate held up to light). Fuzzy zone edges and colonies within zone indicate vancomycin resistance. If the zone diameter is 12 mm and the zone edge is fuzzy, investigate further. E. faecalis non-vre E. faecium VRE 20
21 S. aureus and benzylpenicillin Examine with transmitted light (plate held up to light). Disk diffusion is more reliable than MIC for detection of penicillinase producers, provided the zone diameter is measured AND the zone edge closely inspected. S. aureus with sharp zone edge and zone diameter 26 mm = Resistant S. aureus with fuzzy zone edge and zone diameter 26 mm = Susceptible 21
22 Detection of inducible clindamycin resistance in staphylococci Inducible clindamycin resistance can be detected by antagonism of clindamycin activity and a macrolide agent. Place the erythromycin and clindamycin disks mm apart (edge to edge) and look for antagonism (the D phenomenon). Examples of D phenomenon for staphylococci. 22
23 Detection of inducible clindamycin resistance in streptococci Inducible clindamycin resistance can be detected by antagonism of clindamycin activity and a macrolide agent. Place the erythromycin and clindamycin disks mm apart (edge to edge) and look for antagonism (the D phenomenon). Examples of D phenomenon for streptococci. 23
24 Reading guide Zone edges should be read at the point of complete inhibition as judged by the naked eye with the plate held about 30 cm from the eye. Exception E. coli Ciprofloxacin S. aureus Linezolid S. aureus Erythromycin Enterobacteriaceae Ampicillin There is often growth within areas of α- haemolysis! S. pneumoniae Chloramphenicol S. pneumoniae Tetracycline S. pneumoniae Cefaclor 24
