E. coli is actually green on tryptic soy agar. The agar itself is a white, amber color.
its because
green
ecoli is a lactose metabolizer, can live on macconkey while psuedomoas cannot.
Simmons citrate agar is a differential agar used to determine if a sample bacteria can utilize citrate as its only carbon source. The agar is initially a green color due to the bromo thymol blue pH indicator in it. If a bacteria uses the citrate, the by-products are ammonia and ammonium hydroxide both of which will alkalize the agar and increase the pH to the point of changing the indicator's color to blue, so the whole agar turns from green to blue.
E.coli shows pink colour colonies in MacConkey agar due to fermentation of lactose
The hemolysis is called green hemolysis because of the color change in the agar.
Agar agar does not produce collagen. It is a plant-based alternative to gelatin and is commonly used as a vegan substitute in cooking and baking. Collagen is a protein found in animals, especially in their connective tissues.
Probably yes, E. coli grows much faster than most microbes
bc im incomplete incubation time.
All of the different streptococci are organized into three groups based on how they break down red blood cells, a process called hemolysis. The group of streptococci that perform alpha hemolysis are called alpha streptococci. In alpha hemolysis, the hydrogen peroxide produced by the streptococci oxidizes the blood's hemoglobin, turning it into methemoglobin, which is green in color.
