Is Bacillus Subtilis an aerobe or anaerobe?
yes it si a fucaltative anaerobe..check microbiology textbook as a reference
Is chickenpox virus an aerobe or anaerobe?
It is neither, since it is not living.
Is E. coli anaerobe or aerobe?
Both, it is a faccultative anaerobe meaning that it normally respires aerobically however in oxygen free conditions it switches to anaerobic respiration. Hope this is useful. Chris Spencer
Is micrococcus luteus a facultative anaerobe?
No Micrococcus luteus is aerobic organism, Staphylococcus aureus is often mistaken for Micrococcus luteus but its main difference is that it is a Facultative anaerobe
What the different between aerobe and an anaerobe?
Aerobes utilize and thrive in oxygen, anaerobes are killed/ fail to thrive in oxygen.
Is Serratia marcescens an obligate aerobe or a facultative anaerobe?
Members of the genus Serratia are facultative anaerobes. Answer from a professor of microbiology.
What is the difference between an aerobe and an anaerobe?
Aerobes utilize and thrive in oxygen, anaerobes are killed/ fail to thrive in oxygen.
Which type of organism aerobe anaerobe microaerophile facultative anaerobe would most likely be affected negatively by the use of old media?
I would think an aerobic organism would do the worst in an oxygen poor media, which would be one of the results of having an older media sitting around.
What scrabble words end with the letters b and e?
There are 163 in the Scrabble dictionary. Here are the first ten: abbe acrophobe adobe aerobe aerophobe agoraphobe ailourophobe ailurophobe albe anaerobe
The advantages and disadvantages of a broth tube culture compared to a culture on a Petri plate?
If you grow your bacteria in a broth tube you can view the oxygen requirements of the bacteria (close to the bottom, anaerobe: close to the top, aerobe)
Can a strict aerobe be distinguished from an anaerobe in thioglycollate broth?
Yes. Thioglycollate is a reducing medium that can establish a gradiation in oxygen content. Oxygen is highest at the top of the tube and absent in the deeper regions.Source: "Foundations in Microbiology" by Kathleen Park Talaro.
What is the primary use of deep?
Agar deeps are used to see whether an organism requires oxygen to grow. If there is spreading growth only at the bottom of the tube, the organism is an obligate anaerobe (meaning it cannot tolerate oxygen). If there is growth only at the surface of the agar, the organism is an obligate aerobe (it cannot grow without oxygen). And if there is growth all along the point of innoculation, the organism is a facultative anaerobe and can survive either way.
