WHAT IS AGAR?

The Australian Group on Antimicrobial Resistance is a unique collaboration of
clinicians and scientists from major microbiology laboratories around Australia.
AGAR tests and gathers information on the level of antibiotic resistance in
bacteria causing important and life threatening infections.


The group started in 1985 and at that time involved 13 teaching hospitals. It
has subsequently grown in 2022 to involve 33 laboratories servicing 55
institutions.

This broadening of the group has meant that not only does the group have good
information as to what is happening with major pathogens in the larger teaching
hospitals (both adult and children) in each State and Territory, but now also
has the ability to monitor what is happening with resistance rates in private
hospitals.

AGAR tests and gathers information on the level of antibiotic resistance in
bacteria causing important and potentially life threatening bloodstream
infections.
