Cefiderocol Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing by Disk Diffusion: Influence of Agar Media and Inhibition Zone Morphology in <i>K. pneumoniae</i> Metallo-β-lactamase

Cefiderocol Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing by Disk Diffusion: Influence of Agar Media and Inhibition Zone Morphology in <i>K. pneumoniae</i> Metallo-β-lactamase

Accurate antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) of cefiderocol remains a diagnostic challenge, especially in infections caused by metallo-β-lactamase (MBL)-producing <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i>. While disk diffusion offers a cost-effective alternative to broth microdilution, it is h...
