Chapter 37, Problem 6TYK
Summary Introduction
Introduction: Plants need both macronutrients, scuh as nitrogen, calcium, phosphorous, and magnesium, and micronutrients, such as zinc, copper, and iron, for normal growth. If these essential nutrients are inadequate, it may result in plant diseases such as leaf discoloration and stunted growth.

A. Antibiotics, such as gentamicin, are used in media to prevent growth of susceptible microbes. Is gentamicin media a selective, differential or enrichment media?
B. Sorbitol is a sugar alcohol that all Escherichia bacteria can normally ferment into an acidic waste compound. This acidic end product is detected by including a pH indicator in the agar and noticing a color change. The strain of Escherichia that is a common food pathogen, E. coli O157:H7, however can not ferment sorbitol. It will grow similar to other E. coli, but not change the agar color. Is sorbitol in nutrient agar a selective, differential or enrichment media?
