Anarobes can be inoculated in an agar slant using an inoculating needle. The needle is able to put the anarobes deep inside the agar. The anarobes can then grow in the anarobic environment provided. The agar slant should then be refrigerated after suitable growth is achieved.
What else can I help you with?
How can some anaerobes be maintained in pure cultures?
Some anaerobes can be maintained in pure cultures using specialized techniques such as anaerobic chambers or jars that provide an oxygen-free environment. These techniques allow for the growth and maintenance of anaerobic bacteria without exposure to oxygen which can be harmful or inhibit their growth. Additionally, using specific growth media and incubation conditions that support anaerobes can help in maintaining pure cultures of these organisms.
List two forms of anerobes?
* 1.) Obligate Anaerobes (can live only oxygen-free environment)* 2.) Facultative Anaerobes (can live oxygen including environment, but makes anaerobic fermentation)
Why will obligate anaerobes grow in thioglycollate?
Obligate anaerobes do not need or use oxygen as a nutrient. In fact it is a toxic substance to them which either kills or inhibits their growth. Thioglycollate allows obligate anaerobes to grow because it consists of sodium thioglycollate, thioglycollic acid and L-crystine which reduce oxygen to water. This creates an anaerobic environment allowing obligate anaerobes to grow.
Explain the toxic effect of oxygen on strict anaerobes?
Strict anaerobic organisms die in the presence of oxygen because the presence of oxygen causes them to create superoxide. Superoxide is toxic and is dismantled in aerobes and facultative anaerobes by the presence of superoxide dismutase. However, strict anaerobes do not have this enzyme, leaving the cell with an accumulation of superoxide which will kill the organism.
What is associated with methanogens?
Anaerobes is associated with methanogens.
How can some anaerobes be maintained in pure cultures?

These techniques allow for the growth and maintenance of anaerobic bacteria without exposure to oxygen which can be harmful or inhibit their growth. Additionally, using specific growth media and incubation conditions that support anaerobes can help in maintaining pure cultures of these organisms.
When did the selective breeding of pure yeast cultures begin?
The selective breeding of pure yeast cultures began in 1883
Is mycoplasma aerobes or anaerobes?
most of them are facultative anaerobes. oxygen is not pioson for them. M. pneumoniae is aerobe. there are also some strict anaerobes in bovine rumen.
Had a vaginal swab taken it says it has grown anaerobes sensitive to metronidazole what does it mean and where is it?
Anaerobic bacterial cultures are performed to identify bacteria that grow only in the absence of oxygen and which may cause human infection. Anaerobes are commonly found on mucous membranes such as the vagina It may be nothing to worry about since they are commonly found in the vagina.
List two forms of anerobes?
* 1.) Obligate Anaerobes (can live only oxygen-free environment)* 2.) Facultative Anaerobes (can live oxygen including environment, but makes anaerobic fermentation)
Do all bacterial colonies consist of pure cultures?
YES.!!
Can streak or spread plates isolate pure cultures from mixed bacteria?
YES
Bacteria that survive with or without oxygen are known as?
There are two groups of organisms that are capable of thriving in an environment without oxygen. Facultative Anaerobes Anaerobes Facultative means with or without.
What organisims do not need oxygen to survive?
anaerobes
Why are bacteria that live in your intestines anaerobes?
dwexxwde
Can obligate anaerobes grow on a slant that is incubated anaerobically?
Yes, obligate anaerobes can grow on a slant that is incubated anaerobically by using special anaerobic incubation methods such as gas-packs or anaerobic jars to create an oxygen-free environment. These methods allow obligate anaerobes to grow on the slant without being exposed to oxygen.
Bacteria that only grows with the absence of oxygen?
Anaerobic bacteria are microorganisms that thrive in environments without oxygen. These bacteria obtain energy through fermentation or anaerobic respiration. They play important roles in processes like decomposition and digestion.
