Microbial Death 1. Microbial Death can be defined as the permanent loss of reproductive capability of microbes. This means that the microbes are unable to grow or reproduce even under optimum growth conditions. 2. A population of microbes do not die instantaneously when exposed to an antimicrobial
An antimicrobial is an agent that kills microorganisms or inhibits their growth. Antimicrobial medicines can be grouped according to the microorganisms they act primarily against.

Agents that kill microbes are called microbicidal, while those that merely inhibit their growth are called biostatic.
