Question

133 31. Given the sensitivity plate, antimicrobial disk, and inhibition zone below. (Note: The gray shading = bacterial growth, the clear area around the disk is the inhibition zone, and the disk is in the center of the inhibition zone). If the disk is part of the inhibition zone, using a metric ruler, which method(s) of determining the size of the inhibition zone diameter is(are) correct (choose any that are correct). a. measure across the inhibition zone from one edge to the other b. measure from the edge of the disk to the edge of the inhibition zone c. measure from the middle of the disk to the edge of the inhibition zone and muliply by 2 the mide of the diskt teed d. measure across the inhibition zone from one edge to the other and divide by 2 e. measure from the edge of the disk to the edge of the inhibition zone and multiply by 2 f. measure from the edge of the disk to the edge of the inhibition zone and divide by 2 g. measure across the inhibition zone from one edge to the other and multiply by h. measure from the middle of the disk to the edge of the inhibition zone and divide by 2

Explanation / Answer

These all are true-

a. measure across the inhibition zone from one edge to other

c. measure from the middle of the disk to the edge of the inhibition zone and muliply by 2

We measure the diameter by including the disk as it covers the zone of inhibition.
