Acinetobacter baumannii Antibiotic Combination Time-Kill Assay Data

Six replications of turbidity and colony count data from a laboratory study exposing four resistotypes of Acinetobacter baumannii to meropenem-based antibiotic combinations. Data points were collected at seven time points over 24 hours, with turbidity in McFarland units and colony counts in log CFU/ml. The dataset was created by Erizka Rivani and processed with IBM SPSS Statistics 23.

Use Cases

• Modeling bacterial growth inhibition based on turbidity measurements over time
• Analyzing dose-response relationships for antibiotic combinations based on specified MIC concentrations
• Comparing the efficacy of antibiotic regimens across different bacterial resistotypes described in the study

Strengths

• Data represents the mean of six experimental replications, which likely improves reliability.
• Includes measurements from seven distinct time points over a 24-hour period.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Last update date is unknown; freshness unverified.
