Abstract:
A method for detecting a presence or an absence of at least one zone of inhibition, the method including a step consisting in depositing a volume of the sample in liquid form along a deposition zone extending along an axis at the surface of the agar culture medium and a step consisting in depositing a determined amount of a chemical agent at the surface of the agar culture medium, the deposit defining a potential zone of inhibition, the axis of the zone of deposition of the sample intersecting the potential zone of inhibition.

Claim (Index 2):
The method as claimed in  claim 1 :\n in which the volume of the sample is deposited by means of a predefined deposition technique which is suitable, for a given biomass of microorganisms in a volume of sample in liquid form, for depositing the volume over a maximum surface area of the agar culture medium so as to obtain a substantially homogeneous surface density of microorganisms which is greater than a predefined threshold; in which the sample is obtained by means of pre-culture of a crude sample, the pre-culture comprising a phase of isolation of a strain of microorganism followed by a phase of incubation of the strain so as to increase the biomass of microorganisms, the biomass depending on the duration of incubation; and in which the duration of incubation of the crude sample is chosen to be less than 10 hours, the surface area of deposition of the volume of sample by means of the predefined deposition technique being chosen to obtain the density.
