Description
Antimicrobials can be used to treat bacterial diseases. However, bacteria and other microorganisms are evolving resistance to common day antibiotics. Finding a new antimicrobial is an important mission for today’s world to counter deadly resistant diseases caused by microorganisms. Today, I am proud to inform you about my research in searching for new antimicrobials from soil. The project is done through experiments of serial dilution, candidate antimicrobial screening, PCR amplification, metabolic testing and finally the Kirby Bauer Assay.
