a liquid or solid formulated to support microbial growth, contains
Growth Media essential nutrients to provide the microbe with a source of
carbon/energy which encourages its expansion
liquid growth media, most common is LB media (lysogeny broth)
Nutrient broth
known for its ability to grow a wide variety of microbes
suppress growth of unwanted bacteria and encourage growth of
desired microbes, often used for cultivation of human pathogens
such as Neisseria meningitides
Selective Media
Example is Columbia CNA agar which inhibits grown of all gram-
negative bacteria so then it’s able to isolate gram-positive
bacteria since it’s the only type that can grow
a Gram-negative bacterium that can cause meningitis and other
Neisseria meningitidis
forms of meningococcal disease such as meningococcemia, a
(meningococcus)
life-threatening sepsis.
What is the nutrient composition sugars, amino acids, and vitamins
of nutrient broth?
distinguishes between two, often related, microbes grown on the
differential media
same media
used to grow organisms with complex growth requirements such
that if absent, will not grow
Enriched media
Example is Chocolate agar which contains hemoglobin, peptone,
and yeast which is best type of food for some microorganisms to
grow so you can study them
bacteria that do not require oxygen to survive, often found in
Anaerobic bacteria
deep wound infections
