What is the purpose of lactose in the macconkey agar?
Lactose in MacConkey agar serves as a fermentable carbohydrate that allows for the differentiation of bacteria based on their ability to ferment lactose. Lactose fermentation produces acidic byproducts, which lower the pH of the agar, causing lactose-fermenting bacteria to produce pink/red colonies while non-fermenters appear colorless.

Can milk be non-lactose?
Milk naturally contains the sugar lactose. Lactose-free milk is made by 'pre-digesting' the lactose in the milk. This is done by adding the enzyme lactase to the milk. The enzyme breaks down the lactose and people who can't digest lactose properly (lactose intolerance) can drink the milk without side-effects.
