© Liofilchem® - Antibiotic Disc - Rev.9 / 20.02.2013 ANTIBIOTIC DISC ENGLISH Antibiotic discs for susceptibility tests DESCRIPTION ANTIBIOTIC DISC are paper discs with special features, that are impregnated with antibiotic and used for the susceptibility test according to the Kirby-Bauer antibiotic testing (KB testing or disk diffusion antibiotic sensitivity testing). ANTIBIOTIC DISC are available in a large variety of configurations. Each configuration is available in packages of 50 and 250 tests. CONTENTS OF THE PACKAGES The 50-test version contains: 1 cartridge with 50 discs packaged in a “blister” with a dryer. The 250-test version contains: 5 cartridges with 50 discs, packaged in a “blister” with a dryer and an instruction sheet. METHOD PRINCIPLE The discs are applied to the surface of a culture medium inoculated with the broth culture containing pure colonies of the microorganism under examination. After incubation, the plates are examined, the inhibition halos around each disc are examined and compared with the standard inhibition haloes: in this way the microorganisms are defined as being susceptible, intermediate or resistant to the tested antimicrobial agents. COMPOSITION The discs are made of high-quality paper in compliance with WHO and FDA specifications. Antibiotic potency: the discs are manufactured according to DIN specification, i.e. the concentration of each antibiotic is within 90-125% of the concentration stated on the disc. GATHERING AND KEEPING SAMPLES The colonies that are to be subjected to the susceptibility test are taken up by culture media that have been previously swabbed with the sample under examination. In the case of mixed colonies the bacterial strains must be purified before they are swabbed on the plates for the susceptibility test. TEST PROCEDURE For the details of the test procedure, refer to the bibliography indicated below or to microbiology manuals. Here the Kirby-Bauer method is shortly summarized: 1. Take the “blister” of cartridges from the refrigerator and leave it for about an hour at ambient temperature in order to prevent condensation forming on the discs when it is opened as such condensation could affect long-term stability; 2. Swab 4 to 5 well isolated and morphologically similar colonies with a culture medium and suspend them in 5 ml of a suitable broth culture such as Tryptic Soy broth; 3. Incubate the broth culture at 36+/-1°C until 0.5 McFarland turbidity is reached; 4. Immerse a sterile buffer in the broth culture or in a diluted form thereof and squeeze it on the wall of the test tube to eliminate excess liquid. Drag it along the surface of the susceptibility test medium contained on the plate so as to produce even growth; 5. Position the antibiotic discs within 15 minutes from inoculation of the plates, pressing them with a sterile pliers on the surface of the agar and within 15 minutes of depositing of the discs leave the plate to incubate at 36+/-1°C for 18-24 hours. EVALUATING THE RESULTS At the end of the incubation period, measure the inhibition halos and interpret according to the current reference standards. CLINICAL INTERPRETATION The susceptibility test carried out in vitro cannot exactly reproduce in vivo conditions. Nevertheless, it shows the effect of the concentration of the antibiotic, which varies in the culture medium in relation to the growth of the microbial population. The final choice of antibiotic to administer to the patient is the responsibility of the clinician who possesses all the information on the patient. QUALITY CONTROL Each production batch of ANTIBIOTIC DISC is subjected to the quality control with the following bacterial strains: Escherichia coli ATCC® 25922 Neisseria gonorrhoeae ATCC® 49226 Staphylococcus aureus ATCC® 25923 Streptococcus pneumoniae ATCC® 49619 Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC® 27853 Escherichia coli ATCC® 35218 Haemophilus influenzae ATCC® Staphylococcus aureus ATCC® 29213 Enterococcus faecalis ATCC® 29212 49247 Haemophilus influenzae ATCC® 49766 Haemophilus influenzae NCTC 8468 Streptococcus pneumoniae ATCC® 49619 LIMITS Diffusion susceptibility tests use an in vitro technique and cannot therefore reproduce the extremely complex in vivo conditions. Nevertheless, it is a useful and important tool that helps the clinician choose the correct therapy. Many variable factors influence the final result of the diffusion susceptibility test. The main ones are: the culture medium used, impregnation of the discs, inoculation of the medium, temperature, time and incubation atmosphere of the plates, pre-incubation and pre-diffusion conditions, depth of the medium, etc. PRECAUTIONS The ANTIBIOTIC DISC cannot be classified as being hazardous according to current legislation but fall within the specific field of application where a safety datasheet must be supplied because they can cause phenomena of sensitisation in sensitive subjects if they come into contact with the skin. ANTIBIOTIC DISC are disposable products. ANTIBIOTIC DISC are only for diagnostic in vitro use and are intended for professional use. They must be used in the laboratory by properly trained operators using approved aseptic and safety methods for pathogenic agents. STORAGE Store the unopened blister at -20°C to +8°C till the expiry date. Leftover discs from an opened package should be stored at 2-8°C avoiding humidity until the expiry date. To further reduce humidity, store the discs inside the disc dispenser, which contains desiccant. In such conditions, ANTIBIOTIC DISC can be used until the expiry date shown on the label. Do not use after this date. Dispose of if they show signs of deterioration. ELIMINATING USED MATERIAL After use, ANTIBIOTIC DISC and the material that comes into contact with the sample must be decontaminated and disposed of in accordance with current laboratory techniques for the decontamination and disposal of potentially infected material. 2 © Liofilchem® - Antibiotic Disc - Rev.9 / 20.02.2013 ANTIBIOTIC DISC PORTUGUÊS Discos antibiótico para antibiograma DESCRIÇÃO ANTIBIOTIC DISC, são discos em papel, com características especiais, impregnados com antibiótico, e destinados a ensaios de susceptibilidade anti-microbiano, pelo teste de Kirby-Bauer (Teste de KB ou teste de sensibilidade antibiótica por difusão em disco). ANTIBIOTIC DISC estão disponíveis numa ampla variedade de apresentações.. Cada configuração é disponível na variante de 50 e 250 testes. CONTEÚDO DAS CONFECÇÕES A variante de 50 testes contém: 1 cartucho com 50 discos confeccionados num “blister” em presença de um secador. A variante de 250 testes contém: 5 cartuchos com 50 discos, confeccionados num “blister”, em presença de um secador, e 1 folha de instruções. PRINCÍPIO DO MÉTODO Os discos são aplicados sobre a superfície de um terreno de cultura, inoculado com a cultura do líquido, preparada com colónias puras do microrganismo em exame. Depois da incubação, são examinadas as chapas, misturadas as auréolas de inibição ao redor de cada disco e comparados com os diâmetros das auréolas de inibição padrão: deste modo os microrganismos são definidos sensíveis, intermédios ou resistentes aos agentes anti-micróbios testados. COMPOSIÇÃO Os discos são produzidos em papel de alta qualidade em conformidade com as especificações da WHO e da FDA. Concentração dos discos: estes são produzidos de acordo com as directrizes da DIN, ou seja, a concentração de cada antibiótico está entre 90 a 125 % a concentração definida para estes discos. RECOLHA E CONSERVAÇÃO DAS AMOSTRAS As colónias que devem ser submetidas ao antibiograma são recolhidas nos terrenos de cultura semeados preventivamente com a amostra em exame. Em caso de colónias mistas é necessário proceder à purificação das estirpes bactéricas antes da semeadura nas chapas para o antibiograma. PROCEDIMENTO DO TESTE Para informação mais detalhada sobre o procedimento, consultar a Bibliografia ou os Manuais de Microbiologia. Breve descrição do método de Kirby-Bauer: 1. Levantar o “blister” dos cartuchos do frigorífico e deixá-lo por cerca de uma hora a temperatura ambiente de modo a evitar que na abertura se deposite humidade de condensação nos discos, prejudicando a estabilidade no tempo; 2. Tocar 4-5 colónias bem isoladas e morfologicamente semelhantes, de um terreno de cultura e suspendê-las em 5 ml de um líquido cultural apto qual o Tryptic Soy broth; 3. Incubar a líquido em cultura a 36+/-1°C até obter uma turbidez igual ao 0.5 McFarland; 4. Imergir um tampão estéril no líquido de cultura ou numa sua diluição adequada e espremê-lo na parede da proveta para eliminar o excesso de líquido. Passar sobre a superfície do terreno para antibiograma, conteúdo em chapa, de modo a produzir um crescimento homogéneo; 5. Depositar os discos antibióticos dentro de 15 minutos do inoculo das chapas, premendo-os com uma pinça estéril na superfície do Agar e por a incubar a chapa, dentro de 15 minutos da deposição dos discos, a 36+/-1°C por 18-24 horas. ANALISE DOS RESULTADOS Após incubação, meça os halos de inibição e interprete-os, de acordo com as normas de referência. INTERPRETAÇÃO CLÍNICA O antibiograma realizado in vitro não pode reproduzir exactamente as condições que se encontram in vivo, contudo é em grau de evidenciar o efeito da concentração de antibiótico, que varia no terreno cultural, nas comparações da população de micróbios em fase de desenvolvimento. A escolha final do antibiótico a subministrar ao paciente concerne ao clínico que é em posse de todos os dados que dizem respeito ao próprio paciente. CONTROLO DA QUALIDADE Cada lote de produção do ANTIBIOTIC DISC é sujeito a um controlo de qualidade com as seguintes estirpes de referência: Escherichia coli ATCC® 25922 Neisseria gonorrhoeae ATCC® 49226 Staphylococcus aureus ATCC® 25923 Streptococcus pneumoniae ATCC® 49619 Pseudomonas aeruginosa Escherichia coli ATCC® ATCC® 27853 Enterococcus faecalis ATCC® 29212 35218 Haemophilus influenzae ATCC® 49247 Haemophilus influenzae ATCC® Staphylococcus aureus ATCC® 29213 49766 Haemophilus influenzae NCTC 8468 Streptococcus pneumoniae ATCC® 49619 LIMITES O antibiograma para difusão, utilizando uma técnica in vitro, não é em grau de reproduzir as condições extremamente complexas que se encontram “in vivo”; contudo, constitui um útil e importante suporte à escolha terapêutica do clínico. Muitas são as variáveis que influenciam o resultado final do antibiograma por difusão; as principais são representadas pelo: terreno de cultura utilizado, impregnação dos discos, inóculo do terreno, temperatura, tempo e atmosfera de incubação das chapas, condições de pré-incubação e pré-difusão, espessura do terreno, etc. PRECAUÇÕES O produto ANTIBIOTIC DISC não é classificável como perigoso em conformidade com a legislação em vigor, mas, reentra no específico campo de aplicação da normativa relativa à obrigação de fornecimento de ficha de segurança, porque pode causar fenómenos de sensibilização em sujeitos sensíveis em caso de contacto com a pele.
