Metagenomics Gel Electrophoresis
5
Metagenomics Functional Analysis Are there genes producing proteins that lead to antibiotic resistance?
6
Metagenomics Similar to Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion susceptibility test - standardized protocol to measure resistance or sensitivity of pathogens to potential antibiotic compounds. Bacteria lawn Disc containing antibiotic Clearing zone
7
Metagenomics Factors affecting size of clearing zone: Effectiveness of antibiotic Concentration of antibiotic Solubility of antibiotic Depth of agar Density of bacteria Resistant colonies –things to consider Distance from disc Number
