What are ideal conditions for salmonella bacteria to grow?
Bacteria and Salmonella grow in warm conditions. Too hot or cold will kill them and so a warm, wet environment is perfect for them to grow.
If the bacteria can not use citrate what will the results be in the citrate agar test?
If bacterium cannot use glucose the fermentation tube will stay the same color. Gas may also occur inside the fermentation tube.
What test tube would you use to draw blood for a ESR?
Black top (sodium citrate tube) or light blue tube. They both contain sodium citrate. I failed this question on my final, I knew a black top tube is used but it was not given to me as a choice. I did not think hard enough to come to the conclusion that a light blue tube would be another option.
What tube color contains sodium citrate?
Guessing you're asking about color coded vacutainers, since otherwise I can't make any sense of the question. Light blue is usually the color code for a tube with sodium citrate.
In what food does salmonella grow?
Food poisoning doesn't grow on food. It is from bacteria that grows on it.
What vacutainer would you use for a blood chemistry test?
A centrifuge tube would be useful, but a regular test tube will suffice.
What happens when you add too much blood to a sodium citrate tube?
elevated glucose value
What is the additive in a black top tube?
Sodium Citrate, the same as Light Blue top tubes.
Can greens sealed in plastic bags turn to salmonella?
The only way the greens could have Salmonella is if the Salmonella was already in the greens when the package was sealed - or if the packaging itself was contaminated. Salmonella can grow on the plant juices.
What is the pH of salmonella?
Salmonella is a type of bacteria. It requires a pH of 4.4 to 9.0 (prefers 6.5 to 7.5) to grow successfully.
