| WHICH BREAKPOINTS?2009-07-01 | The breakpoints used to classify isolates as susceptible/intemediate/resistant on this website are the version 8 BSAC breakpoints (January 2009). In a few cases, where BSAC breakpoints have not been set, EUCAST breakpoints are used (for S. pneumoniae with cli, dor, min and tec; alpha-haemolytic streptococci with dor, etp, ipm and mem; beta-haemolytic streptococci with dor, ipm, mem, min, tec and van; H. influenzae with min; and M. catarrhalis with amx, ctx and min). More recent breakpoints may exist. | Click here |

| CHANGING BREAKPOINTS2006-06-29 | We aim to use current breakpoints on this website. As a result, the percentages of isolates shown as susceptible/intermediate/resistant may differ from those published in previous papers or calculated on the website at an earlier date with earlier breakpoints. | Click here |
