Required I.AB REPORT 5- Selected questions on exercise dealing with testing for antibiotic resistance i.e. development of an antibiogram. etc.) Note; Results for this exercise would include explanations of the Kirby-Bauer and E test i.e, what is the purpose, how are they set up. What kinds of results did you observe for each type of assay? Drawings can be of help. A table containing Kirby-Bauer plate data will be provided at the time of the exercise to make it possible for you to interpret the data. Using the provided data, you should be able to say who is resistant, sensitive or has intermediate resistance. Further explanation will be provided later. NOTE: Arrows on chart on next page do not apply this semester (i.e. you may be asked to substitute Streptomycin for ampicillin.) Example of how the table would be set up. Note, there may be different antibiotics mentioned. (Note: mcg = micrograms) Q1.Are antibiotics considered to be effective against virus infections? Explain why or why not. Q2. What is the benefit of using Mueller-Hinton medium in a KirbyBauer assay instead of media such as nutrient agar or tryptic soy agar? Q3. What is a beta lactam antibiotic? Some bacteria produce enzymes called beta lactamases. What is the function of the enzyme beta lactamase when a bacterium produces this enzyme? Where are beta lactamases found in a bacterial cell - are they typically intracellular or extracellular (secreted) enzymes? Q4.a)What does the abbreviation MIC stand for? Provide a brief explanation of its relevance to bacterial drug resistance. b) Explain what an E-test is and how it can be used to determine a MIC for a bacterial organism. c) Using the text, you will see there is at least one other test that can be used to determine a MIC for a bacterial organism. Please give a brief description of that assay. Q5. The antibiotics referred to above as " E ", "Te" and "C" all have the same cell target. What part of the cell do these antibiotics bind to? What process do they inhibit?
