Researcher testing the sensitivity of bacteria

Model released. Researcher testing the sensitivity of bacteria on culture plates. The plunger-like device which he is using is able to dispense six small portions of different antibiotics on the surface of the plate containing the cultured organism. The result of such a test is typically used to determine which is the most suitable antibiotic to treat the bacterial infection under examination
