Our world is somewhat “germ-phobic”. The media cover new outbreaks of diseases, we eagerly await new antibacterial and antiviral medicines, and we hear of new ways to “fight germs”. But suppose there were no microbes to contend with. What do you suppose life would be like?

Microbes grow under optimal conditions of pH, temperature, and nutrients depending on the species’ metabolic requirements and adaptive responses. Some species have very strict and narrow growth conditions whereas others can grow in a wider range of stringency. For this discussion assignment, select a fungal, helminth, or parasitic species of your choice and prepare an initial post describing the optimal growth conditions, location, and unique characteristics which helps the microbe adapt to this niche. Include images if possible. Is there any therapeutic application for this microbe in healthcare?

1. this question included are different parts. Please JUST TYPE your answer which covers all its questions:

A) What is the zone of inhibition, and how does it relate to the minimum inhibitory concentration?

B) How do you conduct the Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion technique?

C) If a microbe is sensitive to an antibiotic, what would the results of a Kirby-Bauer test look like?

D) If a microbe is resistant to an antibiotic, what would the results of a Kirby-Bauer test look like?

E) Physicians use the Kirby-Bauer test to decide what antibiotic would be best to prescribe for a particular in infection. If an antibiotic is appropriate, will it have a large zone of inhibition or a small zone of inhibition? Why?
