摘要：The zone of inhibition test can be used to measure the susceptibility of the bacteria towards the antibiotic.The process of measuring the diameter of this Zone of Inhibition can be automated using Image processing or can be measured manually. The aim of this work is to evaluate the antibiotic activity of Tetracycline on Lactobacillus acidophilus. This work demonstrates an effective approach of evaluating the Zone of Inhibition by calculating the radius of the zone by drawing contours and setting the right value of threshold. This work also determines if a particular bacteria is susceptible or resistant to the applied antibiotic using the calculated Zone of Inhibition and the prescribed standard values.This work also demonstrate the need of additional probiotics therapy during the course of Tetracycline therapy.
