    W501 strain (hybrid) which had its mitochondria removed and replaced with that of D.simulans mitochondria. The third strand of fly used was the sdhBEY12081 strain (mutant) that had a mutation present on the sdhb gene of the mitochondria. The sdhBEY12081 gene is responsible for producing the enzyme succinate dehydrogenase, which is used in the electron transport chain for ATP production. The results showed that the sdhb (mutant) strain of flies developed the quickest, the wild-type strain was…

    identified for the growth of Av. paragallinarum. Secondly, the media used in disc diffusion and broth dilution testing need to be validated. This validation process is completed by performing disc diffusion and broth dilution testing of quality control strain on candidate agar or broth. Then, the antimicrobial sensitivity of Av. paragallinarum can be tested on validated media, by both disc diffusion and dilution method. Any antibiotic resistance shown in the tests will be recorded and analysed.…
