There are several different ways to test antibiotic resistance. The category is Diffusion methods. About 1mil of a solution is used and bacteria growth is observed. The second is Disk diffusion method which uses an agar plate. The antibiotic is placed in a ring outside the bacteria and if the bacteria grows outside of the ring it is resistant to the antibiotic, if it doesn't the antibiotic works. There are other methods such as the E-Test, which involves a plastic strip and varying strengths of an antibiotic; Genotypic Methods, which allows testing for a specific mutation; and other more expensive methods of testing.

Discusses different ways to research bacteria growth. Also provides solutions for potential problems. Talks about using chemicals to see what protects best against bacteria.

Homeopathic medicine treats/alleviates symptoms instead of indiscriminately killing bacteria. Helps keep an internal balance of Bacteria. Details Multiple studies.

Article discusses the different uses of plants briefly and then provides ideas for Experiments. One possible Experiment is how bacteria reacts with different plant extracts. Then it could help determine whether homeopathic medicine works.
