BACTERIOLOGY POST TASK
Across
- 3. Selective for Neisseria gonorrheaeand Neisseria meningitidis.
- 7. High protein media for growing a wide variety of bacteria.
- 8. Bacterial culture that involves growing bacteria in the absence of oxygen.
- 10. Bacterial colony that has a shiny and wet appearance.
- 12. Used for urease test to detect urease production which is ideal for identification of Proteus
- 13. Staining technique is used to differentiate bacteria in the absence of oxygen.
- 16. Visible mass of bacteria that forms on solid culture media.
- 17. Culture medium is used to isolate a specific group of bacteria.
- 18. Enrichment for the isolation of Salmonella spp.
- 20. Peptone base media with lactose.
Down
- 1. Test that identifies bacteria based on the ability to produce bubbles in the presence of hydrogen peroxide.
- 2. Used for the isolation and identification of Clostridum.
- 4. Transport media, to maintain viability of the organisms from the source to the laboratory.
- 5. Bacteria that requires oxygen to grow.
- 6. Used for separating Nocardia and Streptomyces.
- 9. Colony characteristic refers to the height or thickness of the colony above the agar surface.
- 11. Most solid medium used to culture media.
- 14. Describes the texture of a colony that is dry and crumbly.
- 15. For the isolation of Listeria monocytogenes.
- 19. Bacterial colony that are smooth and have uniform surface.
