Abstract：
Bacterial culture and susceptibility are widely used in veterinary medicine to determine the specific bacteria causing infection as well as aid in appropriate antimicrobial selection. Previous studies have shown variable results with culture and susceptibility depending on the laboratory and methodology used. Samples from dogs with superficial pyoderma were obtained to make a homogeneous solution of bacteria. Sample acquisition from this solution was randomized and submitted to four veterinary laboratories for microbial identification and sensitivity. There was fair agreement among the laboratories in identification of a Staphylococcus spp. as well as fair agreement among the laboratories on the same Staphylococcus sp. Very good agreement was noted on identification of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus spp. Additionally, good to very good agreement was noted on all antimicrobials that were tested across all four laboratories. A difference in turnaround time for sample processing was observed between the laboratories in the present study. Overall, there was mild variability among the laboratory results in this study.
摘要：
细菌培养和敏感性广泛用于兽医学中，以确定引起感染的特定细菌以及帮助选择适当的抗菌药物。先前的研究显示了不同的结果与培养和易感性取决于所使用的实验室和方法。从患有浅表脓皮病的狗获得样品以制备均匀的细菌溶液。来自该溶液的样品采集是随机的,并提交给四个兽医实验室用于微生物鉴定和灵敏度。实验室在鉴定葡萄球菌属物种方面达成了一致。以及实验室之间对同一葡萄球菌的公平协议。在鉴定耐甲氧西林葡萄球菌属方面取得了很好的一致性。此外,在所有四个实验室中测试的所有抗菌药物上都注意到良好到非常好的一致性。在本研究中，实验室之间观察到样品处理的周转时间不同。总的来说,本研究的实验室结果存在轻度变异性.
