9a. Bile salts and crystal violet inhibit the growth of Gram-positive organisms.
10. Colonies of non-lactose fermenting bacteria appear colourless or transparent.
11. The high concentration of NaCl dehydrates and kills microorganisms.
12. Staphylococcus aureus produces yellow colonies with yellow zones, whereas other Staphylococci produce small pink or red colonies with no colour change to the medium.
9. What is the role of bile salts and crystal violet in MacConkey agar? 10. Why...
How is Staphylococcus aureus differentiated from other Staphylococci species on Mannitol Salt agar?
can somrone help me write an introduction for each agar. thank you

Introduction: Selective and differential media are used frequently in Microbiology Pathology Labs to identify a known group of bacteria from a complex mix of other bacteria. The medium is designed to select against as many of the background organisms as possible by using a medium in which they will not grow but the organisms under investigation can grow hence the "Selective" part of the name. Any assayable...

1)An eosin methylene blue (EMB) agar plate was inoculated with four different species of bacteria. Below are the colony growth after inoculation. Which shows a vigorous lactose fermenter? A) A brown media with an oblong culture of bacteria. The colony shows vigorous growth and is the same color as the media. B) A brown media with an oblong colony of bacteria that experiences weak growth. The color of the media is visible through the translucent white color of the bacterial...
dyes, such as phenol red or methylene blue used in differential media? Why are dyes, such as A. to inhibit motility B. to stain microbes C to kill bacteria D. to see microbes to detect pH changes due to metabolism What is the purpose of differential medias to encourage growth of the desired bacteria B to isolate few bacteria to observe metabolism of the bacteria D. to stain bacteria E to determine motility 10 Why does Staphylococcus aureus turn yellow...
Lab Report-Carbohydrates 1. Purpose 2. Special Media for Isolating Bacteria (Lab #12) a. Why are dyes such as phenol red, eosin or methylene blue added to the media? b. How does the bacterium change the media (i.e color of agar or colonies) after incubation? C. In this experiment, which media are selective, and which are differential? d. How did the results observe on the mannitol salt agar and EMB agar correlate to the Gram reaction of the bacteria? e. What...
