Method for determining in solution susceptibility or resistance to a polymyxin antibiotic of bacteria of the Enterobacteriaceae family, comprising the steps consisting in
a) providing a liquid composition comprising
- a liquid growth medium for Enterobacteriaceae,
- a polymyxin antibiotic compound at a defined concentration adapted to inhibit Enterobacteriaceae sensitive to polymyxin antibiotics,
- a pH indicator providing a colour to the liquid composition,
- a substrate comprising one or more aldohexoses,
b) providing into the liquid composition a biological sample containing one or more bacteria of the Enterobacteriaceae family,
c) carrying out a metabolization reaction of glucose,
d) watching a colour change of the liquid composition
and diagnostic kit for implementing the method. |
