If you would like to develop this experiment into an open-ended inquiry, after going over introductory information, have students postulate potential purposes and hypotheses, then create a set of class questions related to possible results of a Kirby-Bauer test.

I have been asked many times to interpret the susceptibility results from labs outside ADDL. ... If only isolated colonies grow, the inoculum was too light and the test should be repeated. To avoid extremes in inoculum density, never use undiluted overnight broth cultures for streaking plates./li>

A common application of this method is the Kirby Bauer test, developed in the 1960s. The procedure is used to determine the sensitivity of an organism isolated from a patient to a series of antibiotics. The results serve a guide to physician to prescribe a drug.

The Kirby-Bauer test, known as the disk-diffusion method, is the most widely used antibiotic susceptibility test in determing what treatment of antibiotics should be used when treating an infection. This method relies on the inhibition of bacterial growth measured under ... INTERPETATION OF RESULTS:
