Antibacterial screening assays - Pharmacy

Determination of antibacterial activity (compounds, natural products etc.) by broth microdilution method, screening and dose response.

The antibacterial activity assay is performed in 96-well plate format. In screening assay 16 samples per plate can be tested in triplicate at the single concentration. In dose response assay 2 samples at 8 concentrations.

Primarily, user is expected to provide the bacterial strain for the assays. Availability of strains can also be inquired from the research group of prof. Päivi Tammela by email () or when submitting project request in iLab.
