I got the answer but you hav ta do your labreport yourself..haha
Whoever wrote this is an a$$hole. I wish that you went to my school so I could kick your aXX..Ha ha back at you, jerk!
thanks jerk,,that was really helpful..
anyway guys, here is the correct and precise answer, hope it will help u to complete ur lab repor..:)
In streak plate method, After the first sector is streaked in dish, the inoculating loop is sterilized and an inoculum for the second sector is obtained from the first sector. The same is done for third and fourth sector. Thus this is a dilution process. Eventually, very few cells will be on inoculating loop, a single cell will drop from it as it is rubbed along the agar surface. These develop into separate colonies.
Whereas, in the pour plate culture, sample is diluted several times to reduce the microbial population sufficiently to obtain separate colonies when plating. After the agar has hardened each cell is fixed in place and forms an individual colony.
What else can I help you with?
Could some bacteria grow on the streak plate and not be seen using the pour plate technique?
Put simply - yes. Some strictly aerobic organisms will not grow in a pour plate. They may, however proliferate on a streak plate. Also consider the posibility of experimental error. The culture may have been added to the molten agar when it was too hot for the organisms to survive.
What happens if you rub the mineral across a streak plate but the mineral does not leave a streak?
The lack of a streak would indicate that the mineral is harder than the streak plate, or the color of the streak is the same as the color of the streak plate.
What is a streak when it comes to talking about science?
'streak' is the color that a mineral will leave when rubbed on a piece of unglazed porcelain. It is used to help identify the mineral. For example, arsenopyrite looks very similar to gold, but has a dark grey or black streak. Gold has a yellow streak.
Colors of a line of fine powder from a mineral?
It is called the streak, and refers to the color of the powdered mineral that is left on a ceramic streak plate after the mineral specimen has been drawn across it. It may be different than the color of the observed specimen and is representative of the true color of a mineral that does not include impurities or traces of other minerals, or has been irradiated or heated.
What is the color of a mineral's powder?
It's called the minerals streak
What is the simplest technique for isolating bacteria in growth media is referred to as the?
The simplest technique for isolating bacteria in growth media is referred to as streak plating. In streak plating, a small sample containing mixed bacterial populations is spread in a pattern over the surface of an agar plate, allowing individual bacterial colonies to form and grow separately.
Are the different streak methods appropriate to the cell densities recovered?
Yes, different streak methods are appropriate for different cell densities recovered. For high bacterial densities, the zig-zag streak method can help isolate individual colonies. For low bacterial densities, the lawn streak method can be used to spread out the bacteria for better visibility and isolation of colonies.
What will a streak plate with two species of bacteria look like?
A streak plate with two species of bacteria will show separate colonies with distinct morphologies and colors. Each species will grow in its own isolated area on the plate, allowing for differentiation between them. It is important to observe and document the characteristics of each colony to identify and classify the bacteria present.
Can streak or spread plates isolate pure cultures from mixed bacteria?
YES
Why obtain pure culture of bacteria from a mixed culture?
i obtain pure culture of bacteria from a mixed culture for obtain pure one bacterial culture
What is the purpose of the streak for isolation?
By using streak plate technique to spread a clinical sample out on the surface of a growth medium individual types of bacteria can be isolated
How is a minterals streak determinded?
Streak color is determined by scraping the mineral across a a streak plate, (which is made of unglazed porcelain), and then observing the color of the streak, which is left on the plate. Note that some minerals do not leave a streak, as they are too hard. Thus, it is important to learn other identification methods, to use in conjunction with streak color, in order to identify minerals.
Would the streak of garnet be difficult to determine?
Determining the streak of garnet can be challenging because it varies depending on the specific type of garnet. In general, garnet typically has a white streak, but some varieties may leave a slightly different colored streak due to impurities. It's best to use a streak test plate to compare and determine the actual color of the streak.
Why are agar plates dried before being used for the preparation of dilution streak plates?
Agar plates are dried to prevent contamination, as moisture promotes the growth of bacteria and fungi. Drying the plates helps to maintain a sterile environment and ensures that only the intended bacteria or fungi are cultured on the plate.
What are streak plates used for?
Streaking is used in microbiology to isolate a strain from a species of bacteria, so that this sample can be grown on a new culture.. Streak plates are used in this process to great effect.
Will isolated colonies always be in the second sector on the streak plate?
No. It depends on the number of bacteria present in the initial sample. If the number of bacteria in the initial sample are limited, you may get isolated colonies in the first streak. If the number of bacteria in the sample are high, it may take several streaks before the sample is diluted to the point where isolated colonies are evident.
What is mean by cfu?
It is the concentration of bacteria in any solution.CFU stands for Colony Forming Units. Colony forming unit is a form of measuring bacteria grown on a streak plate.
