Differential Media allows all types of microorganisms to grow, but some types look different, producing a new color.

Differential Media allows ________ (all or most) types of microorganisms to ________ (die or grow), but ________ (all or some) types look different, producing a new color.

EMB stands for Eosin Methylene Blue.

EMB stands for __________ __________ ___________.

Contains Lactose, which allows for the differentiation of Gram Negative (-) microorganisms based on their ability to ferment lactose

How is EMB differential?

Contains Eosin and Methylene Blue, which inhibits the growth of Gram Positive (+) microorganisms, therefore selective for Gram Negative (-) microorganisms

How is EMB selective?

Contains Mannitol and pH indicator, Phenol Red, which allow for the distinction between Gram Positive (+) microorganisms that can ferment Mannitol, and those that cannot

How is MSA differential?

Contains Salt, which inhibits the growth of Gram Negative (-) microorganisms, therefore selective for Gram Positive (+) microorganisms

How is MSA selective?

Contains Lactose, which allows for the differentiation of Gram Negative (-) microorganisms based on their ability to ferment Lactose

How is Mac differential?

Contains Bile Salt and Crystal Violet Dye, which inhibits the growth of Gram Positive (+) microorganisms, therefore selective for Gram Negative (-) microorganisms

How is Mac selective?

MSA stands for Mannitol Salt Agar.

MSA stands for __________ __________ __________.

Mac stands for MacConkey.

Mac stands for ______________.

False - Organisms that are able to ferment Mannitol will produce Acid, which decrease the pH of the sample, causing the Phenol Red pH indicator to turn Yellow.

T or F: Organisms that are able to ferment Mannitol will produce Acid, which increase the pH of the sample, causing the Phenol Red pH indicator to turn Red.

A Selective Medium is a culture medium designed to allow the growth of some kinds of organisms, but not others.

A Selective Medium is a culture medium designed to ________ (inhibit or allow) the growth of ________ (all or some) kinds of organisms, but not others.

An Enrichment Medium is designed to support the growth of a particular organism, hoping to increase the number of rare organisms.

An Enrichment Medium is designed to ___________ (weaken or support) the __________ (death or growth) of a particular organism, hoping to __________ (increase or decrease) the number of rare organisms.

What is the color of a weakly fermented EMB plate (choose which letter corresponds to this test result)?

A. Some Pink

What is the color of a weakly fermented Mac plate (choose which letter corresponds to this test result)?

Allows all types of microorganisms to grow, but some types look different, producing a new color

What is the definition of a Differential Media?

Designed to allow the growth of some kinds of organisms, but not others

What is the definition of a Selective Media?

Designed to support the growth of a particular microorganism, hoping to increase the number of rare organisms
