pyogenes. The sputum sample was first inoculated in the agar plates MAC‚ SBAP‚ CHOC and also a direct gram stain of the sample was performed. After a day of incubation‚ the MAC agar gave a negative result‚ therefore it is not a Gram-negative bacteria and non-lactose fermenting. The SBAP and CHOC showed growth of colonies. The CHOC agar had a mixed formation of colonies (gray colonies and 2+ tan colonies)‚ so it was isolated in another CHOC agar and it was mixed again. A gram stain procedure was done

I removed he swabs from their packets and swabbed the inside of my cheek and put them back in their packets. 3. I then lifted the lid of the TSA plate slightly at an angle to prevent airborne microorganisms from contaminating the agar and smeared the surface of the agar with the swab from the floor and labelled it ‘TSA floor’. I did the same for the swab from my cheek and labelled it ‘TSA cheek’. I repeated this process for the SDA

To prepare a stock culture of an organism using isolates from the mixed cultures prepared on the agar streak-plate and/or the spread plate. Introduction : In order to be able to adequately study and characterize a certain microorganism‚ microbiologists need to separate and isolate this microorganism from the many other microorganisms with which

shigellosis include Btilliant Green Agar‚ and Triple Sugar-Iron Agar. Expected results in a confirmed case of shigellosis are as follows: Brilliant Green Agar – Isolated Shigella colonies which do not ferment lactose or sucrose and appear red or white in color with no growth to trace growth on the Agar plate will be present. Triple Sugar-Iron Agar – Presence of Shigella will manifest as a red slant with a yellow butt with no H2S present. In Brilliant Green Agar‚ E. coli O157 would present as isolated

Isolating Single Colonies: Done by streaking cultures out on an agar plate to dilute the cells on the surface of the agar‚ overlapping streaks‚ separation or distribution of cells to form isolated single colonies. 7.
