You are given a complex, biological mixture and asked to determine the amount of penicillin present in the sample. Attempts to extract or otherwise separate the penicillin quantitatively have been unsuccessful. However, it has been possible to isolate some of the penicillin in pure form. Suggest a manner to determine the concentration of penicillin in this sample. Be specific as to what you will measure and how you will relate it to the amount of penicillin in the sample.
Note that it is not appropriate to self-diagnose outside of a medical context and this is a completely hypothetical scenario. Imagine you have a rash on your foot. You're concerned that it's an infection and inoculate a sample onto an agar plate. You wonder, How can I figure out whether the pathogen is a bacterium vs a eukaryote? You decide to use lab supplies to get a basic understanding of the pathogen. Be specific about what tests you use and what you expect the results to be. Limit yourself to experiments we could do in our lab. What is one experiment you could do, involving culturing the organism?
Explain a simple test one could do to determine if drug resistance isdeveloping in a culture.
Neosporin consists of neomnycin, bacitracin, and polymyxin B. Which component(s) can inhibit Gram positive bacteria and which can inhibit Gram negative bacteria ? Discuss briefly why it is better to use 3 different antibiotics than just one at the same time.
What are other methods of measuring the sensitivity of organisms to antibiotic?
Your patient has a severe sore throat. A throat swab has allowed you to isolate the causative bacterium, which you subjected to a Minimum Inhibitory Concentration Test. For each of the antibiotics tested, you also know its therapeutic index. Whích would be the best drug to use to treat your patient? O Highest MIC and largest therapeutic index O Lowest MIC and smallest therapeutic index O Highest MIC and smallest therapeutic index O Lowest MIC and largest therapeutic index

What will happen if we place a Halophilic Bacteria in Hypnotic solution? Please answer at your own easy words. Answer should be to the point, maximum 100-150 words.
Citing the data from your results table tell which antibiotic is the most effective against this type of bacterium. Citing the data from the results table tell which antibiotic is the least effective against this type of bacterium. Explain how you determined the level of effectiveness. Describe what the Petri dish looked like. Hint(the most effective antibiotic has a larger clear area around the antibiotic disk. The least effective antibiotic has a smaller clear area around the antibiotic disk.
A factor in the zone of inhibition size on the Kirby-Bauer plate is: a. amount of medium placed on the plate b. rate of diffusion of the drug used c. stage of growth of the microbe placed on the plate d. all of these
Write a paragraph for when you once have Neisseria gonorrhoea bacteria in its pure form, what methods can you use to confirm the identity of this bacterium as N. gonorrhoeae? Mention what is the principle of those methods.
If you had another drug, Drug B, that the microbe was also susceptible too that was in every way comparable to Drug A except that the therapeutic index was 6, which drug would you choose to use for your patient and why? Paragraph BIU ...
