What is the protocol for culture of fungi on rice starch agar media?
* Prepare a Rice Starch Agar Media (RSA) * Sterilize the media , glasswares , pipette etc. by autoclave at 121 degree C temp. and 15lbs pressure for 15 mins. * take the media and other things to the aseptic chamber. * Pour the media in the petri plate. * Allow it to solidify. * Inoculate the sample with the help of inoculating loop on the media. * Incubate it at RT for 3-7 days for fungal growth. * Obeserve for the shape, size, appearance of the colonies.

How do you inoculate a solid media?
To inoculate a solid media, a sterilized inoculation loop or needle is used to pick up a small amount of the desired culture. This culture is then streaked onto the surface of the solid media in a specific pattern to ensure isolated colonies grow. The inoculated media is then incubated at the appropriate temperature to allow the colonies to grow.
What is an inoculating medium?
A media which is used to inoculate the bacterium for the culture is a inoculation media. Based on the bacteria, one can use LB media or nutrient broth or any other special media for this. The goal is to let the bacterium grow well from the inoculation culture or colony.

What is isolation media in microbiology?
The growth media such as nutrient agar or Mckonkey agar is used to isolate microbial cells from the mix culture when inoculate on them. Some time speical media is used which selectivly grow some time of bacteria or a differential media which give different morphology of different bacterial species e.g. blood agar and Mannitol salt agar. It can be done by three ways: the spread plate method, the streak plate method, and the pour plate method.

Compare simple media with differential media?
