**Antibiotic Sensitivity Chart for Bacterial Strains** This table presents the results of antibiotic sensitivity testing for three bacterial strains: *E. coli*, *P. aeruginosa*, and *S. aureus*. The data includes the average diameter of the zone of inhibition (Zone Dia.) in millimeters for different antibiotics, alongside their susceptibility status: Susceptible (S), Resistant (R), or Intermediate (I). **Table: Antibiotic Sensitivity Results** | Drug | *E. coli* | S, R, I | *P. aeruginosa* | S, R, I | *S. aureus* | S, R, I | |-------|-----------|---------|----------------|---------|-------------|---------| | AM 10 | 16.2 | S | 7.2 | R | 12.5 | R | | CF 30 | 18 | S | 10 | R | 27.3 | S | | CIP 5 | 32 | S | 31 | S | 26.9 | S | | E 15 | 21 | I | 7.7 | R | 28.7 | S | | GM 10 | 23 | S | 18 | S | 24 | S | | IPM 10| 30 | S | 18 | S | 42 | S | | P 10 | 7 | R | 8 | R | 12.4 | R | **Key:** - **S**: Susceptible - **R**: Resistant - **I**: Intermediate **Interpretation:** - The antibiotics AM 10, CF 30, CIP 5, IPM 10, and GM 10 show effectiveness against *E. coli* with varying degrees of susceptibility. - *P. aeruginosa* is resistant to many of the tested antibiotics except for CIP 5, GM 10, and IPM 10. - *S. aureus* shows susceptibility to most antibiotics except for AM 10 and P 10. - The highest average zone diameters, indicating greater effectiveness, are observed with CIP 5 against all
