Straighterline Microbiology Lab BIO250L Lab 4 Selective Media & Agar Worksheet (New Version Updated) In this lab, you will conduct three different experiments that each cover the topic of selective media and agar. How are these experiments different from one another? Explain how the different media in each experiment are utilized in the context of selective vs differential media. The precise goals and kinds of microorganisms each experiment aims to isolate vary. The selection of media is bas...

Expanding a given microbial population allows researchers to do what? to detect and assess the microorganism more easily What is Growth Media? Growth media is a liquid or solid formulated to support microbial growth. What does Growth Media contain? The media contains essential nutrients to provide the microbe with a source of carbon/energy. The nutrient composition often includes a rich source of sugars, amino acids and vitamins. What else can Growth Media also be called? Such media can al...

TSI correct answer: Triple Sugar Iron Yellow= acid production or fermentation of the sugars in the slant or butt. Gas production= indicated by the agar lifting up or breaking Red= negative or uninoculated Black= H2S production due to FeS precipitation (think salmonella or proteus) The source of Sulfur for H2S production by bacteria is the amino acid Cysteine TSI additional correct answer: Triple Sugar-Iron agar slants. is a differential medium containing 3 sugars called glucose...
