Summary Introduction
To review:
The circumstances in which selective and differential medium are used.
Introduction:
Cells can be grown as well as maintained under laboratory conditions. The culture media are used for growing and maintaining the cells that are composed of different essential nutrients. The growth media can be solid, liquid such as broth or semi-solid. The type of media to be used depends on the requirement of the experiments.
