Question

QUESTION 4 Why is media such as Sabouraud Dextrose Agar (SDA) used for the growth of yeast and fung? Choose all that apply. lower pH inhibits growth of bacteria is differential for bacteria and fungi/yeasts QUESTIONS The difference between MBC and MIC is that... the MBC is the highest concentration of antibiotic that kills the organism will the MIC is the lowest concentration of antibiotic that kills the organism. The MBC is the lowest concentration of antibiotic that inhibits bacterial growth, while the MIC is the lowest concentration of antibiotic that kills the organ The MBC is the lowest concentration of antibiotic that kills the organism, while the MIC is the lowest concentration of antibiotic that inhibits bacterial grow The MBC and MIC are the lowest concentrations of antibiotics required to kill an organism

Answer 1

4. all the options apply because SDA has lower pH (about 5.4) which doesn't support the growth of bacteria but promotes the growth of fungi and yeast, SDA media is also differential for bacteria and used for the isolation of fungi and yeasts.

5. MBC (minimum bactericidal concentration) is the lowest concentration of an antibacterial agent required to kill bacteria for the extended period of time whereas MIC (minimum inhibitory concentration) is defined as the lowest concentration of an antimicrobial agent that behaves like a bacteriostatic and inhibits the growth of microbes) so option 3 is the answer.
