Minimum Bactericidal Concentration

Minimum Bactericidal Concentrelation is the lowest antimicrobial concentration that results in a ≥99.9% reduction of viable bacterial count within a specified time period, distinguishing it from inhibitory measures by quantifying irreversible bacterial killing rather than growth suppression.
