Most Probable Number Statistical Procedure used to estimate the number of bacteria that will grow in liquid media. Gives a 95% probability that the bacterial numbers will fall within a certain range.

Indirect Measurements Turbidity a. No turbidity = < 10 7 cells/ml b. Slight = 10 7 – 10 8 cells/ml c. High = 10 8 – 10 9 cells/ml d. Very High = > 10 9 cells/ml Metabolic Activity Dry Weight

Physical Requirements

Classification of Bacteria by Temperature Requirements

Special Culture Techniques Gas Pack Jar Is Used for Anaerobic Growth

Classification of Bacteria by pH Requirements Acidophiles1.0 to 5.5 Neutrophiles5.5 to 8 Alkaliphiles8.5 to 11.5 Extreme Alkaliphiles> = 10.0

Osmotic Pressure Effects

Chemical Requirements Water Carbon Nitrogen Sulfur Phosphorus Minerals (Fe, Cu, Mg, etc.) Oxygen (aerobes only)

Types of Media Media can be classified on three primary levels 1. Physical State 2. Chemical Composition 3. Functional Type

Physical States of Media Liquid Media Semisolid Solid (Can be converted into a liquid) Solid (Cannot be converted into a liquid)

Liquid Media Water-based solutions Do not solidify at temperatures above freezing / tend to be free flowing Includes broths, milks, and infusions Measure turbidity Example: Nutrient Broth, Methylene Blue Milk, Thioglycollate

Semi-Solid Media Exhibits a clot-like consistency at ordinary room temperature Determines motility Used to localize a reaction at a specific site. Example: SIM for hydrogen sulfide production and indole reaction

Solid Media Firm surface for discrete colony growth Advantageous for isolating and culturing Two Types 1. Liquefiable (Reversible) 2. Non-liquefiable Examples: Gelatin and Agar (Liquefiable) Rice Grains, Cooked Meat Media, Potato Slices (Non-liquefiable)

Chemical Composition of Culture Media 1.Synthetic Media Chemically defined Contain pure organic and inorganic compounds Exact formula (little variation) 2.Complex or Non-synthetic Media Contains at least one ingredient that is not chemically definable (extracts from plants and animals) No exact formula / tend to be general and grow a wide variety of organisms

Special Culture Techniques Candle Jar Candle Jar

Selective Media Contains one or more agents that inhibit the growth of a certain microbe and thereby encourages, or selects, a specific microbe. Example: Mannitol Salt Agar encourages the growth of S. aureus.

Differential Media Differential shows up as visible changes or variations in colony size or color, in media color changes, or in the formation of gas bubbles and precipitates. Example: Spirit Blue Agar to detect the digestion of fats by lipase enzyme. Positive digestion (hydrolysis) is indicated by the dark blue color that develops in the colonies.

Enrichment Media Is used to encourage the growth of a particular microorganism in a mixed culture. Ex. Manitol Salt Agar for S. aureus

Microbes are Managed and Characterized by Implementing the Five I’s 1.Inoculation 2.Incubation 3.Isolation 4.Inspection 5.Identification

Inoculation Sample is placed on sterile medium providing microbes with the appropriate nutrients to sustain growth. Selection of the proper medium and sterility of all tools and media is important. Some microbes may require a live organism or living tissue as the inoculation medium.

Incubation An incubator can be used to adjust the proper growth conditions of a sample. Need to adjust for optimum temperature and gas content. Incubation produces a culture – the visible growth of the microbe on or in the media

Isolation The end result of inoculation and incubation is isolation. On solid media we may see separate colonies, and in broth growth may be indicated by turbidity. Sub-culturing for further isolation may be required.

Inspection Macroscopically observe cultures to note color, texture, size of colonies, etc. Microscopically observe stained slides of the culture to assess cell shape, size, and motility.

Identification Utilize biochemical tests to differentiate the microbe from similar species and to determine metabolic activities specific to the microbe.

Utilize immunologic tests and genetic analysis. The major purpose of the 5 I’s is to determine the type of microbe, usually to the level of species.

Media Can Be Varied in Chemical, Physical, and Functional Purposes, Depending on the Intention Remember

Growth and Isolation of Microbes Leads to Pure Cultures that Permit the Study and Testing of Single Species

Cultures can be used to Provide Information on Microbial Morphology, Biochemistry, and Genetic Characteristics
