The company provides various synthetic chemicals as well as biologic components such as amino acids, cas proteins, R2A agar, etc used as media components for microbial culture growth. Becton ...

Now, microbial growth is at the center of what’s called agar art—using the common lab growth medium as a canvas and applying growing organisms to create what look like sketches, paintings ...

This is a differential medium. It tests the ability of an organism to do several things: reduce sulfur, produce indole and swim through the agar (be motile ... crystal violet which inhibit the growth ...

There are about a trillion species of microbes on Earth, but usually we only pay attention when one of them, E. coli for example, has led to an outbreak of disease. However, besides a few disease ...

Guoan Zheng, associate professor of biomedical engineering, has developed a new sensor technology that can perform large-scale microbial ... it on specialized media, like an agar plate.

The purpose of this practical is to investigate the effect of antiseptics or antibiotics on bacterial growth using agar plates and measuring zones of inhibition. This allows the selected bacteria ...
