The lawn plate method is a microbiological technique used to assess the antimicrobial activity of substances, such as antibiotics or disinfectants. In this method, a bacterial culture is evenly spread across the surface of an agar plate to form a "lawn" of bacteria. Small wells or disks containing the test substances are then placed on the agar, and after incubation, the zones of inhibition around the wells or disks indicate the effectiveness of the antimicrobial agent against the bacteria. This method is widely used in research and clinical settings to evaluate new antimicrobial compounds.

Who was the first to developed the culture plate method to identify pathogens?
Rober Kock developed the culture plate method to identify pathogens.
Do blood agar support viral cultivation?
No, Blood Agar does not support viral cultivation. If you have a nutrient agar plate with a lawn of cells coating the surface, you could add viruses to the lawn and the viral culture will survive on the plate by infecting the cells in the lawn, clearing them as the cells are lysed. The areas of clearance on the plate are called plaques.
What are 3 methods used to isolate microorganisms from a mixed culture?
It is necessary to make the colonies well-isolated from each other so that each appears distinct, large and shows characteristic growth forms.Most bacteria, many other microfungi, and unicellular microalgae, may be most commonly obtained by plating methods such as streak plate method, pour plate method and spread plate method.
What method is used to measure the movement of oceanic plates?
Satellites are used to measure the movement of plate by radiation.
Who discovered streaking method?
American microbiologist Robert Koch is credited with discovering the streaking method in the late 1800s. This method involves spreading a bacterial sample on an agar plate to isolate individual colonies for further study.
Does the streak plate method work better than the pour plate method?

What is difference between a lawn culture and streak plate?
Alsalam alkom There is a difference between the two term (lawn culture and streak culture), if you used a loop for making new culture from primary culture you called that streaking method (like ABC streaking method), while if you used swab and streaked almost all the plate then, you can say (lawn culture).. In conclusion to the above 1- streaking is used to purify the bacterial culture (i.e to make well isolated colony) 2- lawn culture is used for antibiotic sensitivity tests Ali Maki .
Who developed the culture plate method of identify pathogens?
Rober Kock developed the culture plate method to identify pathogens.
Who was the first to developed the culture plate method to identify pathogens?

Where is the serial number on a sears lawn tractor?
Mine is on a plate located under the seat.
How do the results of pour plate method compare with those obtained using the streak plate and spread plate method?
In the pour plate, the microorganisms will grow within the gel that has been set, and in the spread-plate technique, growth will be on top of the agar gel where it has been spread.
What advantages does the streak-plate method have over the pour plate method?
The streak plate method makes it easier for colonies of bacteria to grow. It also generally leads to individual colonies that look like small dots, rather then simply a mat of bacterial growth.

Do both the spread-plate and pour-plate method in a experiment produce similar bacterial counts or are they vastly different?
Both Spread-plate and pour plate method don't give the same results. Because in the case of spread plate method the inoculmn used for inoculation can't be spread in a exact volume. A little inoculmn remains stick with the spreader after spreading. On the other hand, in pour plate method it doesn't happen. So mostly, through comparing the counts by both methods, less counts are obtained in spread plate method. I am Working as a Sr. Microbiologist in a Biotech company
What is the method called when the bacteria sample and nutrient agar are mixed before pouring?
Pour plate method
What is Two methods for obtaining isolated colonies?
Two common methods for obtaining isolated colonies are the streak plate method and the spread plate method. In the streak plate method, a sterile inoculating loop is used to spread a diluted microbial sample across the surface of an agar plate in a series of streaks, which helps to separate individual cells. The spread plate method involves diluting the microbial sample and evenly spreading a small volume across the surface of an agar plate using a sterile spreader, allowing colonies to grow from individual cells. Both techniques aim to achieve isolation for further study or identification of microorganisms.
How do you measure bacteria in a petri dish?
When bacteria is grown in an Agar plate, one quantitative method to measure growth is using a counting chamber. Another method is using viable plate counts.
