Antimicrobial

Zone of Inhibition (ZOI) testing is a fundamental method used in microbiology to assess the effectiveness of antimicrobial agents. This test measures the area around a treated sample where bacterial

The CSN EN 1040 standard sets requirements for testing of the bactericidal activity of chemical disinfectants and antiseptics. An understanding of the standards by the manufacturers is important for ensuring

Antibiotics have been of great importance in the treatment of infectious diseases for the past several decades. In order to address the rise of antibiotic-resistant bacterial strains in response to

Zone of Inhibition (ZOI) testing is a simple, yet effective method that serves as an initial screening tool to identify promising compounds, evaluate potency and guide subsequent research. Nowadays, the

In the fight against infectious diseases, the dosing of antibiotics has to be just right enough for treatment to be effective and not enough to raise resistance. Minimum Inhibitory Concentration

In microbiology and pharmacology, understanding the difference between bacteriostatic and bactericidal actions is very important for both drug development and clinical application. These terms represent two fundamentally different approaches to

The fight against bacterial infection has been a long and challenging fight for humans and the innovations in testing bacterial resistance to available drugs have been very critical in setting

Role of EN 14347:2005 Guidelines for Healthier Workplaces In the pursuit of healthy working premises, the importance of strong disinfection cannot be overemphasized. This is important to ensure that the

Understanding the mechanism of action and efficacy of antibacterial agents is indispensable in clinical settings as well as research. Zone of inhibition testing is an important method within the field

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
