I’m stuck on a Biology question and need an explanation.
the images i provided below i need help creating a lab report for microbial growth and control of microbial growthWymeshia Robinson SCORE Antimicrobial Sensitivity Testing: KirbyBauer 92% Prelab Briefing 100% List the general steps of the KirbyBauer method for determining antimicrobial drug 100% effectiveness Place the steps of the KirbyBauer method of antibiotic susceptibility testing in the order in which they are performed. Did you know the answer: You said 'Unsure'. You answered correctly: • Using a cottontipped swab, inoculate a plate of MuellerHinton agar with the bacteria to be tested, covering all surfaces of the plate in order to develop a lawn of growth. • Place antibiotic disks onto the surface of the inoculated plate, and tap slightly so that they will adhere to the surface. • Incubate the inverted plate at 37 degrees C overnight. • Observe plate and measure diameters of the zones of inhibition. • Compare diameters to chart of interpretive criteria. Define the zone of inhibition and how it is measured 100% Which of the following correctly describes measurement of the zone of inhibition: Did you know the answer: You said 'Unsure'. You answered correctly: Measure the complete diameter of the zone, from the edge of the zone on one side of the disk, across the disk to the edge of the zone on the other side, in mm. Explain how to evaluate the measured results of a KirbyBauer test 100% What factors influence the size of the zone of inhibition for an antibiotic? Did you know the answer: You said 'Unsure'. You answered correctly: • The growth rate or inhibition of growth of the bacteria in the presence of the antibiotic • The rate of diffusion of the antibiotic through the Mueller Hinton agar. Experimental Learning Objectives 89% Label plates 100% Labeling sterile agar plates before inoculating with an organism is an important step for ensuring correct data collection after incubation. Inoculate one sample onto each plate 100% You correctly inoculated two plates, one with each of the two different species of bacteria.
