Question
Chapter 3, Problem 4TBP
Summary Introduction
To describe: The reason why the determination of the antibiotic sensitivity of bacteria takes so long.
Introduction: Antibiotic sensitivity is the vulnerability or susceptibility of bacteria to antibiotics. Antibiotic susceptibility testing is often carried out in clinical practice. This technique is highly useful in the identification of disease-causing bacteria. For example, Staphylococcus saprophyticus.
