E.coli does not digest the starch on a starch agar plate, therefore it does not produce amylase making it negative.
it is Bacillus with gram negative.
EMB (Eosin Methylene Blue) AgarThis agar plate is selective for gram-negative bacteria (one of which is E. coli). A characteristic green sheen along the streak will identify it as E. coli after a 24-48 hour incubation period. This is due to its lactose-fermenting properties which ellicits a green sheen.
The organism is likely to be Escherichia coli. E. coli is citrate positive since it can utilize citrate as a carbon source, but it is indole negative as it does not produce indole from tryptophan. Additionally, E. coli is MR (methyl red) negative and VP (Voges-Proskauer) negative, indicating its fermentation pattern. Lastly, E. coli is typically sorbitol negative, meaning it does not ferment sorbitol.
EMB plate testing is used to look for bacteria with lactose fermentation. + test results show dark purple, blackish or metalic green bacteria colony. On EMB plate, following results showed with 4 different bacteria. * E. aerogenes: Purple colony (+) * E. coli: Metalic green colony (+) * S. aureus: No growth (-) * S. facealis: No growth (-) With the result, we can conclude that lactose fermentation occured by E. aerogeneus and E. coli.
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.
Sheep blood agar inhibits gram negative bacteria. E. coli is gram negative.
A better way to phrase the question you are asking is "Can PEA agar grow E. coli?" The answer is yes, but only a small amount of growth will be observed because PEA is partially inhibitory to Gram negative organisms and E. coli is Gram negative.
it is Bacillus with gram negative.
Yes, E. coli are Gram negative.
It is gram negative
E. coli is Gram-negative.

E. coli is actually green on tryptic soy agar. The agar itself is a white, amber color.
The organism is likely to be Escherichia coli. E. coli is citrate positive since it can utilize citrate as a carbon source, but it is indole negative as it does not produce indole from tryptophan. Additionally, E. coli is MR (methyl red) negative and VP (Voges-Proskauer) negative, indicating its fermentation pattern. Lastly, E. coli is typically sorbitol negative, meaning it does not ferment sorbitol.

Eosin methylene blue agar is a selective and differential agar used for the isolation and differentiation of gram-negative bacteria. Eosin Y and methylene blue dyes inhibit the growth of gram-positive bacteria, while lactose fermentation by some gram-negative bacteria leads to the formation of pink or purple colonies. Additionally, the agar can distinguish between lactose fermenters and non-fermenters based on colony color and appearance.
EMB agar is useful for the selective isolation of gram-negative bacteria, especially fecal coliforms such as E. coli, from clinical and environmental samples. It is also helpful in differentiating lactose-fermenting bacteria (which produce dark colonies with green metallic sheen) from non-lactose fermenters based on colony color and appearance.
