Think about minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) assays. A set of tubes, all containing the same amount of bacterial cells, have decreasing amount of antibiotic X added to them. Tube 1 had 0mg/ml, Tube 2 has 100mg/ml, tube 3 has 50mg/ml, 4=25, 5=12.5, 6=6.25, and tube 7 has 3.125. If bacteria grew in tubes 1, 4, 5, 6, 7, what is the MIC of this antibiotic for this bacteria? Select one: a.None of the Above b.3.125 mg/ml c.25 mg/ml d.0 mg/ml e.50 mg/ml

TOPIC : MICROBIAL GROWTH Classify the bacteria that is most likely involved in each situation provided according to their classification (as to microbial growth requirements). CHOICES: A. Obligate aerobe ,B. Obligate anaerobe, C. Microaerophile, D. Aerotolerant anaerobe, E. Mesophile, F. Thermophiles 1.The bacteria under study thrives at the alveolar ducts in the lungs causing respiratory disease. 2.In the experiment, the agar plate containing an axenic culture was originally incubated inside a candle jar for one day and then transferred to an oxygen-rich incubator for another day. Findings: the microbial growth persisted and stayed the same regardless of the specific type of incubation employed. 3.A microorganism that can survive pickling and refrigeration was discovered when a tightly-sealed jar of pickles grew several colonies despite following the correct recipe, tight closure seal, and proper refrigeration. 4.The spoiled bottle of wine that was stored at standard room temperature…
