Antimicrobial drug development is a complicated process which requires a thorough knowledge of the microbiological testing procedures. Among these microbiological tests, Minimum Bactericidal Concentration (MBC), Zone of Inhibition (ZOI), and Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) assays are the basic antimicrobial tests which are performed frequently by drug developers. These tests provide important data regarding the effectiveness […]

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a growing public health concern that requires the continued development of new antibiotics. As bacteria become more resistant, it becomes increasingly difficult to treat infections leaving patients with untreatable illnesses. Developing new antibiotics is a thorough process with several stages of testing and MIC determination is important for analyzing their effectiveness.
