- Consider the diameter of a spherical object being measured with the help of a Vernier Callipers. Suppose its 10 Vernier Scale Divisions (V.S.D.) are equal to its 9 Main Scale Divisions (M.S.D.). The least count in the M.S. is 0.1 cm and the zero of V.S. is at -0.1 cm when the jaws of Vernier callipers are closed. If the main scale reading for the diameter is \(M = 5\) cm and the number of coinciding vernier division is 8, the measured diameter after zero error correction, is:

Antimicrobials
Infections and diseases may be caused by different types of organisms like bacteria, fungi, and viruses, etc., in humans and animals. Antimicrobial agent is the drugs that are used to prevent the pathogenicity of microorganisms.
Examples: Antibiotics, antiseptics, and disinfectants.
It is used to prevent infections and diseases caused by pathogens. Different types of antimicrobial drugs are commonly available. These are as follows:
- Antibacterial drug: is a drug that are used to inhibit the pathogenic activity of bacteria. Example: Zithromax.
- Antifungal drug: A drug that is used to prevent the fungal activity in the host is called an antifungal drug. Example: Miconazole
- Antiviral agent: A drug which is used to stop the pathogenic action of a virus is called as antiviral agents. Example: Tamiflu.
- Antiparasitic drug: is a drug that are used to prevent the growth of pathogenic parasites. Example: Anthelmintics
