The short answer is no. Microorganisms are just that - microscopic, and the naked eye can not determine between different species, especially in a broth culture. Maybe on a plate, where the colony shapes, sizes, viscosity, and color can be determined, but a broth culture usually needs to be streaked onto a plate to determine if it is pure or not.
