test
(redirected from disk diffusion test)

   Also found in: Dictionary/thesaurus, Medical, Legal, Encyclopedia, Wikipedia, Hutchinson 0.01 sec.
Test
The event of a price movement that approaches a support level or a resistance level established earlier by the market. A test is passed if prices do not go below the support or resistance level, and the test is failed if prices go on to new lows or highs.

test
The attempt by a stock price or a stock market average to break through a support level or a resistance level. For example, a stock that has declined to $20 on several occasions without moving lower may be expected to test this support level once again. Failing to fall below $20 one more time would be considered a successful test of the support level and a bullish sign for the stock.

pneumoniae isolates that were identified during the designated time frame, tested for susceptibility to penicillin, found to be possibly resistant by the oxacillin disk diffusion test, and resistant by MIC testing distinguishing penicillin intermediate (PCN-I) or penicillin high-level resistant (PCN-R).
The identification of the species and the imipenem susceptibility were confirmed at the coordinating laboratory by using conventional tests (11) or ATB 32 GN system (bioMerieux, Marcy-l'Etoile, France) and by using the disk diffusion test (12), respectively.
pneumoniae isolates showed resistance to at least one extended-spectrum cephalosporin by the disk diffusion test.
