Does cocktailing two commonly used antibiotics on influenza has a better affect on the disease?
How does antibiotics work: Antibiotics could work in two ways. 1. Stops the bacteria from multiplying 2. Interfere with the formation of bacterial cell wall or cell content.
Hypothesis: By combining two different antibiotics used for the same disease, it will increase the effect of the medication.
Controlled Variables: antibiotics A, B and C (using amount of 2x units)
Independent Variables: combined antibiotics AB, BC, AC (using amount of x units each)
Dependent Variables: The amount of bacteria killed
Section 1:
Test the affect of antibiotics A, B, C AB, AC BC.
Section 2:
If there is an increased effect from antibiotics AB, AC or BC. Hypothesis is justified.
Select the most effective combination and adjust the mixture. (20%-80%, 40%-60%, 60%-40%, 80%-20%)
Potential disease choices for this experiment: MRSA, Tuberculosis, Gram positive infections,
