What is the main advantage of pour-plate method over other methods of bacterial colony isolation?
Previous answer: "because of infection" This person is obviously trying to be funny, the right word should be "Contamination", as for spread plate, the bacteria is more exposed to air as it is spread over the agar plate. Therefore, the result might not be accurate, as it might be contaminated. As for the pour plate method, the bacteria is in the agar itself, it is not exposed to air, thus, less risk of getting contaminated.
What is the purpose for pour plate?
The purpose of a pour plate is to exam the bacteria in milk. It is used to find isolated bacteria colonies under anaerobic and aerobic environments.
What are the surface colonies on a pour plate larger than those within the medium?
The surface colonies on a pour plate larger than those within the medium especially aerobic bacteria within the medium would be a restriction of growth. The restriction of growth would be due to the lack of oxygen.
What plates causes shiveluch to form?
The Pacific Plate and Eurasian Plate
What activity in the magma causes crustal plate movement?
convection currents. Causes the magma to move the earths crust creating plate movement.
How do you identify a contamination on a pour plate?
You can identify a contamination on a pour plate by color, size, shape, texture, or growth rate.
What causes clutch slip?
Clutch Slip can be caused by a couple of things but the main causes include a worn clutch plate, oil contamination on the friction plate itself, insufficient free-play and finally worn or seized operating mechanism.
What is the purpose of the pour-plate technique?
used to assay bacterial contamination on food.
What causes soil contamination?

How does the contribution of growth on a pour plate different from that on a steak plate?
Colonies growing on a pour plate have slightly less avalible oxygen and are confined by the gel matrix so they tend to grow smaller than those on a pour plate. Streak plates are use to isolate single colonies, pour plates are used to enumerate batceria.
How do you polish aluminum plate?
You pour coca cola on the plate and use a cloth to rub the plate.
How do colonies on the surface of a pour plate differ from those suspended in agar?
How do colonies on the surface of a pour plate differ from those suspended in the agar?

How do the results of pour plate method compare with those obtained using the streak plate and spread plate method?
In the pour plate, the microorganisms will grow within the gel that has been set, and in the spread-plate technique, growth will be on top of the agar gel where it has been spread.
Could some bacteria grow on the streak plate and not be seen using the pour plate technique?
Put simply - yes. Some strictly aerobic organisms will not grow in a pour plate. They may, however proliferate on a streak plate. Also consider the posibility of experimental error. The culture may have been added to the molten agar when it was too hot for the organisms to survive.
Does the streak plate method work better than the pour plate method?
