## Indications for use
The MicroScan® Dried Gram-Positive MIC/Combo Panel is used to determine quantitative and/or qualitative antimicrobial agent susceptibility of colonies grown on solid media of rapidly growing aerobic and facultative Gram-Positive cocci. After inoculation, panels are incubated for 16 — 20 hours at 35°C +/- 1°C in a non-CO2 incubator, and read either visually or with MicroScan instrumentation, according to the Package Insert. This particular submission is for a revised QC range of > 0.5 mcg/ml for S. aureus ATCC #29213 with Ampicillin. The Gram-Positive organisms which may be used for Ampicillin susceptibility testing in this panel are: Staphylococcus aureus (beta-lactamase and non-beta-lactamase producing) Staphylococcus epidermidis (beta-lactamase and non-beta-lactamase producing) Staphyloccus saprophyticus (beta-lactamase and non-beta-lactamase producing) Streptococcus faecalis (Enterococcus) Streptococcus pyogenes The MicroScan® Dried Gram-Positive MIC/Combo Panels with Ampicillin are not intended for use with Streptococcus pneumoniae and viridans streptococci.
