Hole agar diffusion test Experiments 1. Hole agar diffusion test 2. Metal tolerance test on agar plates 3. Metal tolerance test in liquid
HOLE AGAR DIFFUSION TEST a method for determining the sensitivity of a microorganism to an antimicrobial drug. The zone of growth inhibition is measured around a ditch, hole, or a filter-paper disk containing the drug and located on an agar culture medium seeded with the microorganism in question.

SDS-PAGE One of the technique to seperate proteins. Molecules with a net charge move in an electric field. It is carry out in porous gel (polyacryloamide gel).

SDS-PAGE SDS is sodium dodecyl sulfate , anionic detergent that disrupts all noncovalent interactions in native protein. Thanks to it proteins can be seperated on the basis of mass .
