The student advises using the same selection procedures and inoculating a 5 mL overnight culture with the transformed cells instead of searching for transformed coli on LB agar plates in order to save time. Why isn't this a wise decision?
A bacterial culture was grown for 12 hours. At 4-hour interval, the culture was sampled to determine the population of the culture, by transferring 25 ml of the suspension to 225 ml 0.90% NaCl. Three consecutive dilutions were further made by using I ml aliquot in 9 ml of 0.90% NaCl. One ml from each dilution was plated in each of duplicate plates. The following table shows the results of the plating method. 田 Sampling COUNTS 1st dilution 54; 61 2nd dilution 3rd dilution 4h dilution 1st 3; 7 0; 0 0,0 2nd TNTC TNCT 242: 233 28: 37 3rd TNTC TNTC INTC 249-246 * TNTC = Too numerous to count i.

Special Media for Isolating Bacteria OBJECTIVES Because multiple methods and multiple media exist, you must be able to match the correct procedure to the desired microbe. For example, if bacterium B is salt-tolerant, a high concentration (>5%) of salt could be added to the culture medium. Physical conditions can also be used to select for a bacterium. If bacteri- After completing this exercise, you should be able to: 1. Differentiate selective from differential media. 2. Provide an application for enrichment and selec- tive media. um B is heat-resistant, the specimen could be heated before isolation. Dyes such as phenol red, eosin, or methylene blue are sometimes ineluded in differential BACKGROUND media. Products of bacterial metabolism can react with One of the major limitations of dilution techniques used to isolate bacteria is that organisms present in limited amounts may be diluted out on plates filled with dominant bacteria. For example, if the culture to be isolated has 1…
