General Microbiology question.
If I gave you a broth mix of three bacteria; Bacterium 1 is agram-positive bacterium, Bacterium 2 is alactose-fermentation-positive negative bacterum and Bacterium 3 isa lactose-fermentation-negative gram-negative bacterium, what twoor three plates would you use to isolate them from one another anddistinguish them? Also, thoroughly describe what you would expecteach plate to contain/grow and what each growth might looklike.
I'm not really sure if this has anything to do with the questionabove, but during lab we used PEA (Phenyl Ethyl Alcohol), MSA(Mannitol Salt Agar), EMB (Eosin Methylene Blue) Agar, MacConkeyAgar, and Nutrient Agar.
