Abstract
The performance of agar diffusion tests using disks of cefuroxime (30µg) for predicting ceftriaxone susceptibility in 33 isolates of Streptococcus pneumoniae was studied. All 7 resistant isolates to ceftriaxone (MIC ³1.0 µg/ml) exhibited zones of inhibition <28mm. The procedure can be easily adapted to clinical laboratories.
