Testing is carried out using the diffusion method where paper discs that have been soaked in antimicrobial substances are attached to the surface of agar media that has grown bacteria. In this way, a clear zone will be visible surrounding the disc paper as a sign of the microbe's sensitivity to the antimicrobial.
