Table 20.2
The following results were obtained from a disk-diffusion test for microbial susceptibility to antibiotics.Staphylococcus aureus was the test organism.
$$\begin{array} { | c | c | }
\hline \text { Antibiotic } & \text { Zone of Inhibition } \
\hline \text { A } & 3 \mathrm {~mm} \
\hline \text { B } & 7 \mathrm {~mm} \
\hline \text { C } & 0 \mathrm {~mm} \
\hline \text { D } & 10 \mathrm {~mm} \
\hline
\end{array}$$
-In Table 20.2,which antibiotic would be most useful for treating a Salmonella infection?

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The table only provides information on the susceptibility of Staphylococcus aureus to various antibiotics, not Salmonella, so the effectiveness of these antibiotics against Salmonella cannot be determined from this data.
