Lab 19


Discuss the meaning of selective toxicity in terms of antimicrobial chemotherapy.

Selective toxicity refers to a chemicals ability to inhibit or kill only the microbe and not the host.

Lab 19


State why antimicrobial susceptibility testing is often essential in choosing the proper chemotherapeutic agent to use in treating an infection.

Because there is no way to predict what drugs will be successful in a given case, espcially with emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacterium.

Lab 19


Interpret the results of a Bauer-Kirby antimicrobial susceptibility test when given a Mueller-Hinton agar plate, a metric ruler, and a standardized zone-size interpretation table.
