ANTIBIOTIC ASSAY MEDIUM D

Antibiotic Assay Medium D is used for the microbiological assay of Erythromycin estolate using Klebsiella pneumoniae. Grove and Randall have elucidated the antibiotic assays and media in their comprehensive treatise on antibiotic assays. Turbidimetric methods for determining the potency of antibiotics are inherently more accurate and more precise than comparable agar diffusion procedures. Turbidimetric antibiotic assay is based on the change or inhibition of growth of a test microorganism in a liquid medium containing a uniform concentration of an antibiotic.
