Since Endo Agar selects for Gram negative (-) organisms, and differentiates for lactose, lactose += red colonies and surrounding medium, also coliforms produce a golden metallic green sheen, E. Coli is one example of a microorganism that could grow on Endo Agar.

Is agar a carbohydrate?
Yes. Agar is derived from the polysaccharide agarose which comes from seaweed. Agar is a jell. Different types support growth of microbes in the laboratory.
What fastidious organisms grow only on chocolate agar?
Most pathogenic organisms will grown on chocolate agar, it depends mostly on the incubation conditions i.e. temperature, presence/absence of oxygen etc. However there are some fastidious organisms that require certain growth factors to grow.
Which grows more bacteria broth or agar?
Agar, because broth is a natural fuel source for bacteria, whilst some types of agar are scientifically created, which makes it supreme for growing bacteria.
In m Endo Agar 'm' Stands for?
m-Endo agar is a microbial growth medium used for aqueous cultivation of coliforms by membrane filtration. The 'm' presumably refers to the process of membrane filtration.
What type of medium is macconkey agar?

Why 7.5 percent sodium chloride agar is selective media?
Because 7.5% NaCl agar inhibits gram negative organisms from growing, and is "selective" in that only gram positive organisms can grow in this type of agar.

What are the functions of thallophyta?
1) it is used by aquatic organisms as food. 2) it is to make some chemicals like agar-agar.
What is the composition of modified nutrient glucose agar media?
Modified nutrient glucose agar is composed of agar, water, glucose, extracts, peptone and sodium chloride. Modified nutrient glucose agar allows organisms to grow.
What are the major differences between blood and chocolate agar?
In chocolate agar , blood is lysed by temperature, from that differnt matrials which are helpful to some organisms are release from RBCs.. and from blood agar cells are not lysed and some organisms can not take their nutrients from unlysed RBCs... This is a main difference....

What are different types of microbiological media?
There are various types of microbiological media used for culturing microorganisms, such as agar plates for solid media, broth for liquid media, selective media to encourage growth of specific organisms, differential media to distinguish different types of organisms based on their growth characteristics, and enrichment media to help grow fastidious microbes.
Why is the nutrient agar used?
In Microbiology? Because the nutrient agar allows for the bacteria/organisms to grow in a controlled environment/substance. It also allows you to monitor the growth.
