Do it yourself - Antibiotic resistance lab

[Guest guest]

Could be a good place to start. Better than nothing? Boreal Antibiotic Resistance Lab Since the 1940s, scientists have used antibiotics to combat disease-causing bacteria. This lab features two experiments that let you determine the resistance of bacteria to tetracycline, an antibiotic for biology science fair projects. Antibiotic Effects Kit Based on the Bauer-Kirby test, this kit is used to investigate the effectiveness of three antibiotics using disks of penicillin, tetracycline and chloramphenicol on a petri dish. You will be able to measure the clear “zones of inhibition” around each disk to determine which antibiotic was most effective. http://www.sciencekit.com/category.asp_Q_c_E_506343 & cr=1220 More kits http://www.super-science-fair-projects.com/biology-science-fair-projects.html
