The organisms used are: E. coli (MDR) strain from stool sample; Ps. aeruginosa (multiple-drug resistant) strain from sputum. These two strains were obtained from P.D. Hinduja Hospital (Mumbai); Methicillin-resistant S. aureus was obtained from Lokmanya Tilak Muncipal Hospital. Shigella flexneri, Salmonella typhi, S. aureus 6538 P, Bacillus subtilis and Candida albicans are in-house laboratory strains. Thus the number of tests completed was 96 out of the possible 133 between 19 antibiotics and seven organisms. The test showed that five combinations were synergistic, 89 dditive and two antagonistic." -- The Silver List is a moderated forum for discussing Colloidal Silver.
