Investigating effect of antibiotics on bacterial growth
1. Clean bench with disinfectant
2. Sterilize inoculation loop
3. Spread chosen bacteria evenly on sterile agar plate near Bunsen burner flame
4. Place sterile filter paper discs containing antibiotics on plate
5. Incubate plate at 25°C
6. Measure zone of inhibition around antibiotic discs to calculate area using formula: Area = π x r^2
