A low-cost, hands-on module to characterize antimicrobial compounds using an interdisciplinary, biophysical approach.
We have developed a hands-on experimental module that combines biology experiments with a physics-based analytical model in order to characterize antimicrobial compounds. To understand antibiotic resistance, participants perform a disc diffusion assay to test the antimicrobial activity of different...
