To describe: The reason for using two culture tubes for analysis.
Introduction: The experts in the field of
Explanation of Solution
Two culture tubes are required for the microbial analysis. One culture tube is used to identify and view the particular microbes of interest by following the specific microscopical and staining techniques. The other culture tube is used for performing the other serological analysis that includes biochemical and immunological assays. Having two culture tubes would provide sufficient availability of the sample specimens for analysis with minimal possibilities of contamination.

- Hello, please read the attached Microbiology question and answer the question and its two parts correctly. Please have your answer fit within the two lines given for each part (Please do not give me a paragraph as an answer). *If you correctly answer the question, I will provide a Thumbs Up to you. Thank you.arrow_forwardQuestion:- Describe control strains used in the clinical microbiology laboratory and explain their maintenance in the laboratory. ( write BY WORD and all steps I need). Introduction Discussion Referencesarrow_forward(The top set of images are photographs of your results for MSA and MAC. The bottom set of images are illustrations that reflect the results you should have observed in the photographs.) Culture #:[Type here] Organism:[Type here] Name: Combination Media: Mystery Organism Identification You will be given a pure culture of one of three organisms. Your assignment is to identify which of the three possibilities is in your culture tube. To do this, you will use two different types of media: Mannitol Salt Agar and MacConkey's Agar. Complete the table below by predicting the reactions of each organism on each medium (Growth or no growth? If you expect growth, what color should it be?). Do this before coming to lab on the due date. The information about each organism below and the information found in the theory sections for the labs should help you make your predictions. If you complete this table correctly, it will be a big help to you while you try to identify MSA MAC your mystery organism!…arrow_forward
