B) diffusion susceptibility test

C) broth dilution test

D) both the Etest and diffusion susceptibility test

E) both the broth dilution and the MBC tests

Explanation / Answer

1) the correct option is option (b) probe it is small DNA molecules to which the flourophore is attached which specifically goes and attaches to the complementary DNA segment of our desired choice hence when attaches it flourosnce..

3) the correct option is option (e) gel electrophoresis which basically separates the dsDNA on the basis of size..

4) the correct option is option (c) different RNA polymerase is present in eukaryotic organism.. In prokaryotic organism one RNA polymerase can synthesis the RNA..

5) the correct option is option (e) the first was the Penicillin family which basically interfere with the peptidoglycan cell wall formation in the bacteria .!!

7) the correct option is option (c) PCR it helps in the detection of the sequences using the Forward primer and Reverse primer which will only multiply if the desire segment is present..

8) the correct option is option (d) this is the test used for both etest to find the effects of the antibiotics and to find the diffusion suspectible rate..
