1. The chemicals which were most effective are :-
- Alcohol
- Household cleaner
- Control
Because there were lack of bacterial growth surrounding each disc containing these chemicals.
2. The chemicals which were least effective are :-
- Hydrogen peroxide
- Bleach
Because there were presence of bacterial growth surrounding the disc containing these chemicals .
3.No,it is a not fair test as it is checked practically that whether there is a bacterial growth surrounding the disc or not using ecah chemical ,but particular to a type of bacterial only . Its possible that hydrogen peroxide and bleach restricts or inhibit the growth of other bacteria and viruses. I won't determine these chemicals as antimicrobial as these chemicals should be analysed for other types of bacteria too.
4. The purpose of control group is to assess or compare the cause and effect relation with experimental group. The control groups are not provided any intervention , experimental group is provided the intervention .

can you please help me with Qs 1-6 thanks ! LAB EXERCISE #6: Kirby-Bauer Disk Diffusion Test for Antibiotie Sensitivity Determination The Kirby Bauer Test is an agar diffusion test that is used to determine the effectiveness of antibiotics killing various species of bacteria. Filter paper disks saturated with the antibiotic of interest are placed a Mueller-Hinton agar plate on which bacteria that has been isolated from a clinical sample has been sarcad. The antibiotic then diffuses from the disk...
