Abstract:
Disclosed herein are methods determining susceptibility of bacteria in a sample from a subject suspected of having an infection to a plurality of antibiotics simultaneously, wherein the sample is tested without first isolating the bacteria from the sample.

Claim (Index 13):
A method for simultaneously determining susceptibility of a mixed population of bacteria in a sample to a plurality of antibiotics, the method comprising:\n mixing a quantity of a sample with growth medium and incubating for a period of time; applying the sample simultaneously to a plurality of antibiotic-containing medium, wherein the sample is from a subject suspected of having an infection; culturing the sample in the antibiotic-containing medium for a period of time; measuring bacterial growth in the medium by OD 600  measurement, wherein an adjusted OD 600  measurement of the sample indicates the susceptibility or resistance of the bacteria in the sample to an individual antibiotic; and providing the susceptibility information to a medical professional to determine antibiotic therapy for the subject.
