CONCENTRATION GRADIENT TEST REAGENT KIT AND TESTING METHOD FOR USE IN BACTERIAL/FUNGAL DRUG SUSCEPTIBILITY TESTING

摘要

The present invention discloses a concentration gradient test reagent kit and a testing method for use in bacterial/fungal drug susceptibility testing. The reagent kit includes a test strip unit. The test strip unit includes a strip-shaped culture medium container and a drug container. The culture medium container and the drug container comprise axially-arranged culture medium cells and drug cells, respectively. The culture medium cells can be inserted into corresponding drug cells. The drug container and the culture medium container are stable, easy to preserve and transport, and can be included into a reagent kit for long-term storage. The kit allows for easy and convenient testing operations. Testing results are easy to observe and interpret. The kit can be used in drug susceptibility testing on slow-growing fungi and anaerobic bacteria. Testing procedures and waste processing is biologically very safe.
