Added by Tom-S G.
Step 1
- Gather the necessary ingredients for the enrichment medium suitable for lactic acid bacteria, such as milk, yeast extract, glucose, and peptone. - Sterilize the medium by autoclaving or filtering to ensure it is free of contaminants. Show more…

You are the lead microbiologist at the Wolfpack Pickle Company. You are interested in determining the concentration of Lactobacillaceae (a family of Lactic Acid Bacteria that are important in the fermentation of cucumbers to pickles) in your company's fermentation reactions. You perform a serial dilution viable plate count assay using a sample from a jar of fermented cucumbers and plate on MRS agar, which is selective for Lactobacillaceae. Based on the result of your viable plate count experiment, what is the concentration of Lactobacillaceae in your fermentation jar? 100 100 100 100 100 100 900 900 900 900 900 900 Plate 100 from each dilution tube onto agar plate TNTC TNTC TNTC TNTC 125 22

Sampling lake water for microscopic organisms is not as easy as it sounds when you want to both count and identify species. In a given water sample, your bacteria of choice can be rare or difficult to culture, particularly given the mixture of bacteria in a biofilm. Which of the following culture media would be best for growing fecal coliforms when they are relatively less abundant than other bacteria in the lake? basic culture medium complex culture medium enrichment culture medium anaerobic culture medium
