Best Answer

The only culture medium I know are called petri dishes. The bottom is coated with a media that encourages growth, if any bacteria are present in the specimen. The petri dish remains covered/closed and placed in an area that incubates the specimen. IF bacteria are present, it will grow and multiply into colonies often big enough to see with the naked eye, i.e. without a microscope.

How do bacteria cause an illness as food poisoning?

Food pisoning is most often caused by toxic substances that bacteria found in food produce. The bacteria have grown and multiplied in the food, most often if the food is stored at a certain temperature that must not be too low or too high. The toxins are sometimes produced when the bacteria grow and multiply in the food before eating it. Other times the bacteria produce the toxins when they grow and multiply further inside the stomach and intestines after the food has been eaten.
