When you open CLSI M100, what are you usually looking for? Susceptibility breakpoints? But did you know there's much more information available beyond susceptible, intermediate, and resistant interpretations? In this episode of Micro Minutes, we explore useful information found throughout CLSI M100, including its tables, comments, and appendices. From intrinsic resistance and predicting susceptibility to other antimicrobials to understanding why certain agents should not be reported as susceptible, we highlight practical examples that can help clinical microbiology professionals interpret antimicrobial susceptibility results. Whether you're a student or an experienced laboratory professional, join us as we take a closer look at CLSI M100 and discover what's beyond S, I, and R.   Stay connected with Let's Talk Micro: Website: letstalkmicro.com Questions or feedback?
