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 1):
A method for simultaneously determining susceptibility of a mixed population of bacteria in a sample to a plurality of antibiotics, the method comprising:\n applying a quantity of 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 on the medium for a period of time; suspending bacteria present in the medium with a solution and recovering the suspension; measuring an OD 600  of the suspension, wherein an adjusted OD 600  of a suspension indicates the susceptibility or resistance of bacteria in the sample to an individual antibiotic; and providing the susceptibility information to a medical professional to determine antibiotic therapy for the subject.
