Terms

undefined, object
copy deck
Fastidious
an organism that is difficult to grow in lab
Brownian Movement
Not moving with speed just shivering
Lactose
enteric pathogens intestinal, shigella and salmonella
Mac Conkeys
Gram Negative medium
Medium
No one medium that will grow everything, media will be steralized by exposure to steam at a pressure of 15 P.S.I.
Advantage of MTA
easily visible, live organisms all the time
Monotrichous
One flagellum at one end
Media Requirements
CHONSP
Non-motile
no movement
peptone
enzymatically hydrolized plant of animal tissue used in preperation of media
Continuous Culture
You add fresh nutrients and remove waste products so bacteria can continue to live in the culture
Eosin Methylene Blue
EMB, also used to isolate gram negatives
Folmites
Any innatimate object that can harbor microbes
Disadvantage of MTA
it takes a long time
Most famous composition
glucose minimal medium, only one carbon source
Beta hemolysis
the complete lysis of the red blood cells
True Motility
They will actually go somewhere has speed and direction
Batch Culture
finite (limited) amount of nutrients
Growth Factors
Amino acids, Purines and Pyramides, vitamins
Gas Ethylenen Oxide
Gas used to steralize Petri dishes and other heat labile material
Can't grow in artifical medium
Mycrobacterium Leprae, Chlamydia trachomatis, Treponema pallidum
Mannitol Salt
isolate staphylococcus species
Peritrichous
Flagella surround the cell
Reducing Medium
sodium thiogylcollate an example of reducing medium used to isolate and propagate anaerobes
incineration
making sterile, loopful turning red
Atrichous
No Flagella
extract
used in name typically shows media is complex
MTA
motility test agar
Lac Positive and coliforms
utilizes Lac+ as a substrate, a gram negative non spore forming rod that ferments lactose to acid and gas
Selective and differential Media
inhibit the growth of unwanted organisms
Complex Media
you do not know the exact chemical composition
Selective Media
antibiotics-vancomycin, bile salts-inhibit G+, Salt-Dehydrates and kills organisms, Dyes- MAL, CV, MB
