Here in this question, we are asked to provide information regarding the differential selective media.
00:07
It is a form of selective media used for growing microbes.
00:12
So one of the examples of differential selective media is a blood agar, which contains bovine heart blood, that becomes transparent in the presence of hemolytics.
00:32
Thus the answer for the first question is, blood agar is a general purpose, enriched medium, often used to grow fastidious organisms and to differentiate bacteria based on their hemolaitic properties.
00:48
Thus, this type of agar can be used for differentiating a particular bacteria.
00:56
In the second question, we are asked what type of organisms are differentiated in blood agar.
01:03
So let's check the organism that grows on blood agar.
01:07
Blood agar is used to grow a wide range of pathogens, particularly those that are more difficult to grow, such as hemophilus influenza, strptoccus pneumonia and nigeria species...
