Cat. #161 How Clean is Clean? Testing the Effectiveness of Antibacterial Cleaners

In this lab, students will do two experiments to explore the properties of bacterial growth. First, they will determine a bacteria’s ability to resist the antibiotic ampicillin, then they will test different household clean - ers to determine which is most effective at preventing bacterial growth.
