MacConkey agar questions 4. Would this bacteria be a Gram positive or a Gram negative? How...
How would you verify that the colonies that grew on a MacConkey agar plate were Gram negative? What types of bacteria are inhibited on MacConkey agar?
I need help answering these questions
Part 3: MacConkey agar and EMB agar Watch the following video (LINK) in this folder. You will be answering questions on this video, so please go over the questions first. Go over exercises 4-4 and 4-5. Answer the following questions 1. Define Enterobacteriaceae and coliforms (may have to do some research online). 2. What Enterobacteriacae is EMB and MacConkey agar selective for? 3. What carbohydrate is contained in both EMB and MacConkey agar? 4....
1). What are some potentially pathogenic bacteria that are lactose fermenters that will grow on MacConkey agar?” 2). What are some potentially pathogenic bacteria that do not ferment lactose that will grow on MacConkey agar?”
im not sure how to do this

help please
What type(s) of bacteria are favored to grow on eosin methylene blue (EMB) agar? Select one: O a Gram positive bacteria that can undergo anaerobic respiration. O b. Gram negative bacteria that can ferment glucose and/ or lactose, O c. Only those bacilli that can utilize citrate as a main carbohydrate source. O d. All Bacteria would grow equally well A bacterial species grows on a MacConkey agar plate, and the colonies have dark red color with hazy...
You have three pure cultures of bacteria. One is Gram positive bacteria and the other two are Gram negative bacteria but you have mixed up the labels. You know that one of the Enteric bacteria can ferment glucose and produce ethanol and CO_2. The other can ferment glucose and produce lactic acid. Describe the general procedure you could perform to determine of the three cultures which one is which? A one gram sample of hamburger is diluted to 10^-4 in...
The following results were obtained after cultivating four different microbes on MacConkey medium: gram-positive, lactose positive = no growth gram-negative, lactose positive = dark colonies with pink halos gram-positive, lactose negative = no growth gram-negative, lactose negative = pale colonies with no halos Based upon these results, what to what category of media does MacConkey belong?
help thank you

Background
Ques part 1)
Selective and differential media; EMB and Tsl agar bacill inhabit a wide range of environments. Many are significant pathogens, such a coli, Salmonella, Shigella, but many compose our normal flora and inhabit soil and water. Many gra negative bacilli that inhabit our large intestine are called enterics. Enteric pathogens are the most frequent cause of diarrheal illnesses and have become significant contaminants spread through foo Some can also cause respiratory and urinary infections.
