Is based on the measurement of the brightness of light transmitted by suspended particles
Turbidimetry
Determination of sulfate and phosphate ions.
Nephelometry
In these methods, the activity of the biological agent is determined by measuring the turbidity produced in a series of antibiotic dilutions containing a microbiological culture.
Turbidimetry
The greater the turbidity (due to microbial growth), the ____ the activity of the antibiotic.
less
This procedure is also used to standardize the bacterial concentration of the inoculum used in microbial assays.
Turbidimetry
