Why do people test the mic by saying 1 2?

because they need to check if the mic is on


What is the difference in thickness between a mic and mil?

a mic is 1/1000 of a mil, so it is 1000 times less thick


How do you calculate MIC 50 and MIC 90?

MIC 50 and MIC 90 refer to the minimum inhibitory concentration values at which 50% and 90% of the tested microbial strains are inhibited, respectively. To calculate these values, you first arrange the MIC results from a susceptibility test in ascending order. MIC 50 is the median value, found at the 50th percentile, while MIC 90 is the value at the 90th percentile, meaning it is the concentration at which 90% of the isolates show inhibition. You can use statistical software or manual calculations based on the distribution of your MIC data to determine these percentiles.


How do you calculate the MIC90?

The MIC90 (Minimum Inhibitory Concentration at which 90% of the tested strains are inhibited) is calculated by determining the MIC values for a set of microbial isolates against a specific antimicrobial agent. After obtaining the MIC values, they are sorted in ascending order. The MIC90 is identified as the MIC value that corresponds to the 90th percentile of the sorted list, meaning that 90% of the isolates have MIC values equal to or lower than this concentration.


What is E-test in microbiology diagnosis?

An e-test can estimate the (MIC) lowest Minimal Inhibitory Concentration. MIC is the lowest antibiotic concentration that prevents bacterial growth.
