• Assume your experimental results indicate that antibiotics such as tetracycline, streptomycin, and chloramphenicol have a broad spectrum of activity against prokaryotic cells. Why do these antibiotics lack inhibitory activity against eukaryotic cells such as fungi (HINT: Look at the target of action of these antibiotics)? The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) is another antibiotic sensitivity test in which the minimum amount of a drug is required to inhibit the growth of the microbe being tested. Where do you think the region that matches the MIC would be on the disk diffusion plates?
