Kirby–Bauer Disk Diffusion: Standard medium for antimicrobial susceptibility testing by disk diffusion.

Broth Microdilution MIC Testing: Determines minimum inhibitory concentrations of antibiotics against bacteria.

Cultivation of Nonfastidious Bacteria: Supports routine growth of organisms such as Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Antibiotic Potency Assays: Serves as a standardized base medium for evaluating antimicrobial activity.

Preparation of AST Inocula: Used to grow and adjust bacterial suspensions (e.g., to 0.5 McFarland) for susceptibility testing.

Quality Control of AST: Employed with control strains to verify test performance and batch consistency.
