EMB (Eosin Methylene Blue) agar is a selective and differential medium used for the isolation of fecal coliforms from water samples. The dyes eosin and methylene blue inhibit the growth of Gram-positive bacteria, allowing for the selective growth of Gram-negative bacteria such as E. coli. The formulation also allows for the differentiation of lactose fermenters (pink/purple colonies) from non-lactose fermenters (colorless colonies).
What else can I help you with?
EMB is a selective medium Is it also a defined or an undefined medium Why is that formulation desirable?
EMB is an undefined selective/differential medium. It contains aniline dyes (methylene blue and eosin), which inhibit the growth of Gram-positive bacteria selecting for Gram-negative bacteria. EMB also contains lactose which makes the media differential based on an organisms ability to ferment lactose
Does Mycobacterium phlei grow on EMB agar?
Mycobacterium phlei is a non-fastidious organism that is commonly found in soil and water. It is not commonly grown on Eosin Methylene Blue (EMB) agar, as EMB agar is more selective for gram-negative enteric bacteria. Instead, Mycobacterium phlei is typically cultured on media specifically designed for mycobacteria, such as Middlebrook agar or Lowenstein-Jensen agar.
What does Proteus mirabilis look like on the EMB plate?
Yes it does
What media is used to look for fecal contamination of a sample?
EMB Agar
Which gram positive bacteria grows on macconkey and EMB?
Most gram positive bacteria do not grow on MacConkey agar or Eosin Methylene Blue (EMB) agar, as these are selective media designed to inhibit the growth of gram positive organisms. So, typically, you would not expect a gram positive bacteria to grow on these media.

What does the medical abbreviation EMB mean?

What does 10k emb mean?
14k EMB means made of solid 14k gold andembossed or embedded with another matterial (enamel, gemstones...)
Will pseudomona aeruginosa grow on Emb?
Pseudomonas aeruginosa can grow on Emb agar, as it is a selective and differential growth medium commonly used to isolate and differentiate members of the Enterobacteriaceae family, including P. aeruginosa. Its growth on Emb agar will exhibit the characteristic green metallic sheen due to its ability to produce pyocyanin pigment.
What type of bacteria grow on EMB?
Eosin methylene blue (EMB) agar is selective for gram-negative bacteria, especially those that can ferment lactose. Common bacteria that grow on EMB agar include Escherichia coli and Enterobacter aerogenes. These bacteria are differentiated by their ability to ferment lactose, producing colonies that are metallic green or dark purple on EMB agar.
What is EMB stand for?
East Myrtle beach maybe?
