Mannitol salt agar supports growth of organisms that can grow in a high salt concentration, particularly Staphylococcus species and halophiles. The phenol red pH indicator in the agar will also let you know whether or not the bacterium you streaked ferments mannitol by changing to a yellow color if fermentation has occured.
Mannitol-salt agar contains a high concentration of salt, and thus is selective for halophiles--organisms that prefer salty environments. A common example of this would be organisms in the genus Staphylococcus, which are found on human skin.
It is differential based on an organisms' ability to metabolize mannitol, a sugar. Organisms that metabolize mannitol and have acidic byproducts will turn the medium yellow, as it contains phenol red, a pH indicator.
Staphylococcus can grow well on mannitol salt agar because it can tolerate high saline. It prefers to grown on a salty or saline medium in order to grow at all.
Agar is a gelatinous substance procured from algae, and used in bacteria cultures. It works simply to feed the bacteria and let it grow rapidly.
Yes! Paenibacillus spp. can degrade agar agar
I teaspoon Agar Agar = 2 grams
red algae Agar agar is a malay term meaning red algae. This algae which agar is extracted lives in the ocean around Malaysia
Agar is the recommended base for work with proteins and nucleic acids. Since it is porous, it can be used to measure the growth of DNA and also provides a hospitable environment for replication.
Yes. Incubation in TSI slanted agar tests positive for both characteristics.
Agar, or agar-agar, is not a grain, but rather an extract of seaweed. Agar translates to German as Agar-Agar Try whole- or health-food stores
blood or nutrient agar would work, but blood agar will most likely grow more bacteria.

Agar-agar
Semi-solid agar media have been successfully used for primary culture and drug sensitivity tests of tubercle bacilli directly from sputum homogenates. I really wanna have sex with my friend but i don't know how to start!

no, but saliva detection time is short.
You can control the agar (medium) they are grown on as well as the temperature they are grown at. It just makes it easier to control the growth, and do tests
An agaric is any of various types of fungi of the family Agaricaceae.
