1. To introduce a serum, a vaccine, or an antigenic substance into the body of a person or an animal, especially as a means to produce or boost immunity to a specific disease.
2. To implant microorganisms or infectious material into or on a culture medium.
3. To communicate a disease to a living organism by transferring its causative agent into the organism.
You must inoculate your pets against rabies. The killed cowpox vaccine was used to inoculate people against smallpox.
Inoculating an agar plate refers to transferring microorganisms onto the surface of the agar using a sterile inoculating loop. This allows the microorganisms to grow and form visible colonies that can be studied or identified.
When inoculating a plate, you typically keep the lid of the plate closed to prevent contamination from the surrounding environment.
In microbiological testing, a "butt" refers to the bottom of a tube filled with agar. Its most common use is in conjunction with the term "slant". These agar-filled tubes are typically allowed to solidify at an angle so that a larger amount of surface area is available to inoculate by streaking. After incubation, both the slant surface and the butt have to be evaluated because growth on the slanted surface (next to air/oxygen) will indicate one kind of information and the bottom (butt) will indicate additional information about the bacterial growth--usually indicated by a difference in color. For example, in the TSI test (Triple Sugar Iron), a combination where the slant is red and the butt is yellow means that fermentation of glucose has occurred. In a TSI test, the butt is not actually inoculated. However, in a motility test, which does not require a slant, the agar is inoculated by stabbing a straight wire covered with an inoculum of sample down to the bottom of the tube. If the bacteria can grow away from the stab into the agar, they are motile. If growth is confined to the stab length, they are non-motile.
The change from green to blue in an inoculated citrate slant after incubation indicates the utilization of citrate by the bacteria, causing a pH increase in the medium. This change is associated with the conversion of citrate to alkaline compounds and the subsequent utilization of citrate as a carbon source for growth. This test is commonly used to differentiate between organisms that can utilize citrate and those that cannot.
To inoculate means to inject a micro-organism into something, as in vaccines or inoculating plants with certain experimental micro-organisms. The doctor will inoculate you against smallpox with a vaccine.It can also mean to make someone become full of a certain quality. The politician will inoculate everyone with the idea that freedom must be fought for.I will inoculate the next patient with a dose of oral polio vaccine.Definition: (v.) to treat with the objective of producing resistance to a disease.Sentence: 'The doctor gave Joe a shot to inoculate him for the flu.'

The word 'inoculate' is most often used to mean 'immunize'. It can also refer to injecting something with any substance, relating to words such as 'fill', 'implant', 'ingrain', and 'instill'.
