ISOLATION OF INDIVIDUAL BACTERIAL COLONIES ON SOLID MEDIA Robert Koch developed a method for isolating pure cultures on solid media in 1883. To this end he added agar (a solidifying agent) to liquid nutrient broth; the nutrient broth supports the growth of a wide variety of microorganisms while the agar provides a solid substrate on which bacteria can be mechanically diluted and therefore isolated as independent colonies representing different bacterial species. The isolation of independent bacterial
