If a bacterial pathogen's susceptibility to antimicrobial agents cannot be predicted based on the identity of the organism alone, in vitro antimicrobial susceptibility testing of the isolated organism may be indicated. Susceptibility testing is particularly necessary in those situations in which the etiological agent belongs to a bacterial species for which resistance to commonly used antimicrobial agents has been documented, or could arise.

A variety of laboratory techniques can be used to measure the in vitro susceptibility of bacteria to antimicrobial agents. Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute document M45--Methods for Antimicrobial Dilution and Disk Susceptibility Testing of Infrequently Isolated or Fastidious Bacteria describes the standard microdilution and agar disk diffusion methods. It also includes a series of procedures designed to standardize test performance. The performance, applications, and limitations of the current CLSI-recommended methods are described.
