Design an experiment to isolate a bacterium by using selective, differential and/or enrichment medium
Homework Answers
1) Selective media is the type of media which is used for allowing the growth of only selected organism.
Example: An experiment can be designed to isolate the selected type of organism such as those resistant to ampicillin can be grown in the ampicillin containing media. In this type of media only those bacteria which has ampicillin resistance will grow whereas those lacking the same will not grow.
2) Differential media is the type of media which is used to distinguish one type of microorganism from other growing in the same media. In this type of media there occurs the selection of microorganism on the basis of biochemical characteristic of a microorganism growing in the presence of specific type of nutrient.
Example: An experiment can be designed to isolate the type of organism that is capable of sucrose and lactose fermentation by growing the microorganism in streptococcuseosin methylene blue (EMB).
The enrichment media contains all the necessary nutrient for the growth of microorganism.

78 Exercise 7: Selective and Differential Growth Medium and Tests 1 have been identified. These arms are ganima prutenbacteria. Trods and oxidase negative There are also gram+ onanisms among our unknowns. The blochemical changes we aim to assess are most often mediated by bacterial enzymes and others are fermentations. Color and/or texture changes in the media will aid in the identification of the unknown. The bacterium can be different lated on the basis of their metabolic capacity to manifest biochemical...
