Describe different types of specimen used in microbiology
How do you grow skin cells in a petri dish?
Yes they can as long as an adequate food source is available. This is typically from media with animal serum (ex. bovine). Also an antibiotic is usually added to ensure cell defense. Media will have to be changed routinely.
What is the name of the pH indicator used in microbiology?
lithmus
Why would you use a UV lamp for microbiology?
As UV only kill the Microorganism.Microbiological media contain the agar & for agar dissolve at 90 degree temperature that's why we cannot use UV to sterlize microbiological media
What are the uses of ethanol in microbiology lab?
95% Ethanol is used in the microbiology lab to disinfect surfaces. This is a precaution necessary to avoid contamination of your samples and supplies.
What is reducing media in microbiology?
it is a type of media used for the growth of obligate anaerobes.
What is enumeration media in microbiology?
media used for isolation and identification of unknown microorganism. this is enriched type of media. we can isolate microorganism from air , water and soil.
What is the difference between complex media and simple media?
Complex media contain a mixture of nutrients, while simple media provide specific nutrients in defined amounts. Complex media support the growth of a wider range of microorganisms, while simple media are used when the nutritional requirements of the microorganism are known.
What is a simple media?
In this media non-complicated ingredients are used to support the growth of microbes
How can computer be used in media houses?

What is the use of a refrigerator in microbiology?
it is used to preserve media or chemical reagents. if microbial samples were present, it slows down its metabolism. if the microbial samples were psychrophiles, it enhances their growth.
Define simple and complex media in bioprocess technology?
definition of simple media
Compare simple media with differential media?
Differential media or selective media is an agar that has certain nutrient to grow certain microbes. Simple media is an agar that has simple sugars that many normal microbes thrive in.
