Abstract
If the standard deviation of the distribution of MIC values for a set of wild-type isolates exceeds 1.18 log2 μg/mL when calculated by NRI analysis or 1.11 log2 μg/mL when calculated by ECOFFinder that data set should be considered imprecise and not be used to set an epidemiological cut-off value.
期刊介绍:
The Bulletin of the EAFP is an international peer-reviewed journal that publishes concise papers which merit rapid publication by virtue of their interest in the field of fish and shellfish pathology. Preliminary observations or partial studies are also acceptable, if adequately supported by experimental details. Short reviews, methodology papers and papers proposing alternative hypotheses based on previous data can be considered.
