    2. Describe the implications that the test is an “in vitro” test and not actually a test in a patient.
    3. Explain the need for and the ways in which this protocol is standardized.
    4. Determine if the bacteria tested are Sensitive, Resistant, Or considered Intermediate, for each antibiotic used.
