Antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) is a laboratory procedure used to determine the effectiveness of antibiotics or other antimicrobial agents against bacteria or other microorganisms. It helps healthcare professionals identify which antibiotics are likely to be most effective in treating a particular infection.
In the current scenario, antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has become a significant global health threat. Overuse and misuse of antibiotics have led to the emergence of bacteria that are resistant to multiple antibiotics, making infections harder and sometimes impossible to treat. AST plays a crucial role in combating this problem by guiding clinicians in selecting the most appropriate antibiotic treatment for patients.
