While in the development phase, you are also required to determine both the minimum inhibitory concentration (mic) and minimum bactericidal concentration (mbc) for your drug. while these values directly relate to the efficacy of the drug against bacteria, they will also be informative for the next stages of development, which include studies to determine effective doses within a host. the picture depicts the results of an mbc test. based on these data, the mic for your drug would be and the mbc would be
