System and methods to perform inhibition diagnostic testing utilizing a Petri dish based packaged applied materials kit to conduct growth inhibition testing of essential oil compositions, herbs, antibiotics, antifungals, anti-parasititic compounds applied to fungi, bacteria or other biological materials having confluent growth patterns that are derived from a patient's inoculum grown in a personal incubator. Resulting inhibition patterns are generated by at least one essential oil and/or a panel of essential oils or other applied materials distributed in fixed concentrations or concentration gradients to confluent lawns of bacterial and/or fungal lawns derived from the patient's clinical specimen. Images are acquired during the incubation periods to measure inhibition areas or zones that developed around applied the applied material compositions and the optimal therapeutic treatment is ascertained from analysis of the developing or generated inhibition zones.
