Scientists in a lab use selective media and differential media to identify or isolate organisms. Selective media allows only certain types of organisms to grow.
Two media that include elevated concentrations of sodium chloride for preventing growth of most bacteria are mannitol salt agar and Thiosulfate-Citrate-Bile Salts-Sucrose (TCBS) agar. These media are selective for certain types of bacteria, such as Staphylococcus species in the case of mannitol salt agar, and Vibrio species in the case of TCBS agar.
There are several types of ion-selective electrodes including glass membrane electrodes, liquid ion-exchange electrodes, solid-state ion-selective electrodes, and gas-sensing electrodes. Each type is designed to selectively detect and measure specific ions in a solution based on their electrochemical properties.
Avogadro's principle can be applied when the temperature, pressure, and volume of a gas are the same. This principle states that equal volumes of gases at the same temperature and pressure contain the same number of molecules, allowing for the comparison of different gases under these conditions.
"semipermeable"
The transforming principle contains DNA molecules. These molecules were identified by scientists Avery, MacLeod, and McCarty in 1944 as the substance responsible for the transfer of genetic information in bacterial cells.
its a selective media
No, Mueller Hinton agar is not a selective media. It is a non-selective media that is commonly used for antibiotic susceptibility testing of bacterial isolates.
The media for oxidase test is differential, not selective. It helps differentiate between bacteria that produce the enzyme cytochrome c oxidase (positive result) and those that do not (negative result).
Tryptone broth is neither differential nor selective media. It is a nutrient-rich medium used for the growth of a wide range of microorganisms.
Selective Media - Our cell membrane has a selective permeable property. This type of membranes are important when we want to allow certain sized particles to enter while restricting other sized particles to enter our cell. Selective permeable membrane is of great use in biological samples.
Selective media, is made up of certain nutrients that can either inhibit or enhance the growth of certain bacteria and or fungus. This is why they call it selective media, it is generally only selective for one kind of bacteria or does certain things when that bacteria or fungus is present.
by subculture into non selective media such as soya broth or brain heart
Selective media for isolation of thermophiles include Thermus agar, which contains nutrients favoring growth of thermophiles, and inhibitory substances that limit the growth of other organisms. Other selective media may contain antibiotics or chemicals that only allow the growth of thermophiles due to their specific metabolic characteristics at high temperatures.

simple media :- is a general media used to grow normal microbes in environment & is named as nutrient agar. it is non selective media. complex media :- is used to grow heterotrophic organisms. it is selective.
Yes, Pseudomonas aeruginosa can grow on blood agar media because it is a non-selective medium that provides essential nutrients for bacterial growth. However, its growth on blood agar may not be as robust as on selective media designed specifically for its isolation and identification.
Selective media is one that grows only certain microorganisms while inhibiting (or preventing) others from growing, that is to say , the media has certain chemicals that allow one organism to grow but another organism cannot grow with those ingredients in the media, thus, is selective for the organisms that can grow in that media. Therefore, most commonly grows only one type of organism. Differential media is one that distinguishes one microorganism from another, it can grow more than one microorganism, but depending on how each organism reacts to the media (like turns red) it differentiates from another microorganism. In this type of media if you are trying to distinguish between 2 types of microorganisms, both should grow but they will have different reactions to the media, and thru their visible reactions you can tell them apart (differentiate them).
