WHICH BREAKPOINTS?
2007-02-13

The breakpoints used to classify isolates as susceptible/intemediate/resistant on this website are the version 6.1 BSAC breakpoints (February 2007). In a few cases, where BSAC breakpoints have not been set, EUCAST breakpoints are used (for S. pneumoniae with tec, staphylococci with dap, and beta-haemolytic streptococci with dap, ipm, mem, tec and van).

More recent breakpoints may exist.

CHANGING BREAKPOINTS
2006-06-29

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.
