Polymyxin B is the agar and broth that is used for bacillus cereus for cultivation.
Bacillus subtilis is grown on nutrient agar or in nutrient broth. The preferred medium is M9 with glucose.
Bacillus subtillus will test positive when performing a VP and Citrate test. Also, bacillus cereus is much more motile. It isn't as dependable as the chemical tests, but the cereus colonies will appear wispy and more widespread on an agar plate than those of subtilis.
Agar is a type of gelatinous substance obtained from seaweed, used as a culture medium in laboratories and as a thickening agent in food. Broth typically does not contain agar unless specifically added to it as a thickener.

Proving the purity of a culture is typically faster on agar plates compared to broth cultures. On agar plates, individual colonies of a single organism can be easily distinguished and isolated, whereas in broth cultures, contaminants or multiple organisms may not be as easily visualized.
Yes, Bacillus cereus can grow on Phenylethyl Alcohol agar as it is a selective medium used for isolating Gram-positive organisms including Bacillus species. The agar contains phenylethyl alcohol which inhibits the growth of Gram-negative bacteria, allowing for the selective growth of Gram-positive bacteria like Bacillus cereus.

In our lab we use LB agar, LB broth, and 2XYT broth.

Bacillus subtilis is a gram-positive bacterium, and its cells are rod shaped. The bacteria are usually cultured in Tryptone Soya Agar, and the colonies appear wrinkled, dull and raised. This bacterium colonizes vegetation and is prevalent in the soil.

Bacteria will typically grow more abundantly in broth compared to agar. This is because broth provides a liquid environment with easy access to nutrients, encouraging faster growth of bacteria, while agar is a solid medium that offers less available nutrients and may restrict bacterial growth.
Bacillus subtilis typically does not ferment acid from mannitol salt agar as it lacks the enzymes needed for fermentation. Mannitol salt agar is mostly used to differentiate Staphylococcus species, which are capable of fermenting mannitol.
The agar will solidify and form a gel-like substance in the nutrient broth. This agar-nutrient mixture is used as a solid medium for growing and isolating bacteria in a laboratory setting.
