If I have a gram negatie bacterium, what are reasons that it would not grow on MacConkey agar???
Homework Answers
Gram negative bacteria grow selectively on MacConkey agar. It inhibits the growth of gram positive bacteria.
The reason some gram negative bacteria might not grow on MacConkey’s agar might be due to the culture conditions like temperature, pH, expiry of the medium, contamination of the medium etc.

Microbiology Question If a bacterium exhibits purple growth on MacConkey agar, what color would you expect it to demonstrate when grown on Hektoen agar? On Eosin-Methylene Blue agar? (please also explain why) I know that a positive result is pink in MacConkey, and that my teacher is trying to get some critical thinking done with this question, but I'm not even sure what to think. Please help!
