The Department of Biology, in cooperation with the Continuing Education Unit, has organized a lecture entitled “Identifying Practical Methods of Antibiotic Resistance in Microbiology: Census, Definition and Clarification” in the presence of a number of students. The lecture aimed to clarify the most prominent practical methods that can be used in determining the resistance and sensitivity of microorganisms to various antibiotics, which is one of the important methods and its materials are available, easy and give good results, which are currently used in laboratories by researchers and in hospitals, as these methods are the most important methods used in the field of antibiotics in the methods of proliferation and dilution, as well as the method of E-test tapes.
The lecture was presented by Assist. Prof. Dr. Enas Justin Sweidan, who provided a review of the practical methods used in determining the resistance and sensitivity of bacteria to various antibiotics, such as the method of tapes and the method of knowing the minimum inhibitory concentration of antibiotics by the method of tubes or other methods, while the lecture recommended the need to hold lectures to introduce how to use different methods to determine the resistance and sensitivity of bacteria to different antibiotics using traditional methods, especially for postgraduate studies those related to antibiotics for its importance for their research on the spread of bacterial resistance.
