An agar plate was flooded with a culture of a species of bacterium usually found in the mouth. Four steriled paper discs, A, B, C, and D, each containing a different brand of mouthwash, were then placed on the agar plate. The drawing shows the appearance of the plate after it had been incubated below body temperature for three days, this is to ensure that the bacteria are not harmful to humans.

How is possible to contaminate subculturing?
By improperly handling of the bacteria, or by doing any or all steps of the aseptic technique incorrectly.
Why is aseptic technique necessary for successful cultivation of pure cultures in the laboratory?
Short answer is Koch's postulates. Long answer you can't ascribe any scientific data you may gather to a bunch of bacteria on a plate or in a culture, as you won't know which of the bacteria gave you the result you observed. So if you are trying to figure out which bacteria causes a disease, inoculating a mix of bacteria won't tell you which one causes the disease. Isolating each one using aseptic technique and then inoculating individually and finding the disease in one animal will tell you which bacteria caused to disease.
What is the difference between aseptic and antiseptic?
The adjectives are partly synonymous, but something that is antiseptic kills bacteria, while something aseptic is "surgically clean or sterile."
When you access a port catheter do you use is sterile technique or aseptic?
The terms sterile and aseptic mean the same thing. And you are supposed to use a sterile/aseptic technique. From what I have read, many visiting nurses do not do that if they are from the doctors' office. But they do it in the hospital. It is always best to do this using a technique that will not infect the patient.
Who might use aseptic technique?
microbiologist,biologist and everyone that need to get a clean sample(prevent adding bacteria to the sample).

Why is aseptic techniques so critical?
aseptic technique is the procedure in which work is done in microbial free environment and is necessary for the prevention of infections to the human beings e.g. doctor or patient or other hospital workers and to the microbiologist it is also done for preventing the contamination in microbial culture grown in laboratory
