nutrient agar

"Since 1925, the strain has remained on nutrient agar as a stock culture for teaching and research purposes," said Nature.

Such a culture can be kept forever by successive transplantations onto fresh nutrient agar.

Also, bacteria grown in nutrient agar grows on the surface, and is clearly visible as small colonies.

After the nutrient agar solidifies the plate is incubated.

For definitive diagnosis, the pathogen should then be cultured on reduced nutrient agar.

Petri dishes containing nutrient agar or other appropriate medium.

Cell pairs were removed, placed on nutrient agar and incubated in a warm (40-C) oven.

On nutrient agar, it forms unpigmented colonies.

Nutrient agar is usually used for growth of non-fastidious organisms and observation of pigment production.

Nutrient agar is a microbiological growth medium commonly used for the routine cultivation of non-fastidious bacteria.

Indicator system: Pseudomonas aeruginosa, inoculated on to a nutrient agar plate is kept inside the jar along with the other plates.

Providencia stuartii can be incubated at 37 C in nutrient agar or nutrient broth.

A common identification assay involves culturing a sample of the organism deep within a block of nutrient agar.

M. luteus is coagulase negative, bacitracin susceptible, and forms bright yellow colonies on nutrient agar.

It is composed of standard nutrient agar with the added ingredient of skim milk powder, which contains casein.

He plated some of the smallpox vaccines on nutrient agar slants and obtained large bacterial colonies of several colours.

In the absence of a more specific standard a total count maximum of 100 (cfu) per 25 cm 2 is reasonable using nutrient agar contact plates.

Nutrient agar typically contains (w/v):

The isolates were stored in quintuplicate in small glass vials filled with nutrient agar and then sealed with paraffin.

It grows readily on nutrient agar, producing distinctive smooth low convex colonies with a dark violet metallic sheen (due to violacein production).

Non-food products produced by mariculture include: fish meal, nutrient agar, jewellery (e.g. cultured pearls), and cosmetics.

Sordaria fimicola is often used in introductory biology and mycology labs because it is easy to grow on nutrient agar in dish cultures.

P. syringae tests negative for arginine dihydrolase and oxidase activity, and forms the polymer levan on sucrose nutrient agar.

Alkaline bile salt agar (BSA): The colonies are very similar to those on nutrient agar.

Both B. mallei and B. pseudomallei can be cultured in a lab; nutrient agar can be used to grow the bacteria.
