A schematic diagram of the double dilution method for determining Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC). The image shows a series of test tubes containing decreasing concentrations of an antimicrobial agent (e.g., 64, 32, 16, 8 mcg/mL) in Mueller-Hinton broth, illustrating the transition from turbid tubes with bacterial growth to clear tubes showing inhibition.
