ABSTRACT Current National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards (NCCLS) susceptibility guidelines for quality control testing withHaemophilus influenzae do not include a β-lactamase-producing strain that could detect the deterioration of the β-lactamase inhibitor components of amoxicillin-clavulanic acid, ampicillin-sulbactam, and piperacillin-tazobactam. The objective of the study was to determine if comparable quality control results forEscherichia coli ATCC 35218, a β-lactamase-producing strain, would be produced for the three β-lactam–β-lactamase inhibitor agents with Haemophilus test medium and Mueller-Hinton medium. The criteria used in this study to determine if Haemophilus test medium was acceptable for quality control testing of E. coli ATCC 35218 was that 100% of the results obtained with an antimicrobial agent-methodology combination needed to be within the acceptable NCCLS ranges established with Mueller-Hinton medium. The MIC testing results obtained by the broth microdilution and E-test methods with amoxicillin-clavulanic acid and piperacillin-tazobactam were all within the NCCLS ranges; however, the results obtained with ampicillin-sulbactam by both methods were not within the NCCLS ranges. Acceptable results were obtained by the disk diffusion methodology with ampicillin-sulbactam and piperacillin-tazobactam but not with amoxicillin-clavulanic acid. When performing susceptibility testing with H. influenzae with the β-lactam–β-lactamase inhibitors, in addition to quality control testing with H. influenzae ATCC 49247, testing of E. coli ATCC 35218 on Haemophilus test medium is an effective way to monitor the β-lactamase inhibitors in some antimicrobial agent-methodology combinations.
