(a)  

All cocci are gram (+) EXCEPT:

(a)  

All bacilli are gram (-) EXCEPT:

(a)  

This theory of Gram Staining states that in Gram (+) organisms, the isoelectric point is making them acidic; binds well with Crystal Violet (basic dye).

(a)  

This is a non–stain system to determine true Gram Stain reaction wherein there is a formation of string–like material indicates G (-) organisms

(a)  

The color of a Non-AFB organism after the addition of Acid Alcohol.

(a)  

The color of an AFB organism after the addition of Methylene Blue.

(a)  

This type of Acid Fast Staining uses heat as a mordant.

(a)  

This type of Acid Fast Staining uses tergitol as a mordant.

(a)  

This acid fast stain differentiates M. tb from M. lacticala and M. smegmatis.

(a)  

It is defined as the population of microorganisms or cells that is introduced in the fermentation medium or any other suitable medium.

(a)  

It provides the appropriate biochemical and biophysical environment for microbial growth.

(a)  

Indication of a positive growth for a liquid media.

(a)  

Give an example of a semi-solid media.

(a)  

Give an example of a NON – LIQUEFIABLE solid media.

(a)  

Give an example of a General Purpose Media.

(a)  

This functional type culture media contains inhibitory agents that prevents / suppress growth of unwanted microbes.

(a)  

This medium uses tomato juice as a selective agent.

(a)  

It is a complete lysis of red cells in the media around and under the colonies: the area appears lightened (yellow) and transparent on BAP.

(a)  

It is caused by hydrogen peroxide produced by the bacterium, oxidizing hemoglobin producing the green oxidized derivative methemoglobin resulting to an incomplete hemolysis on BAP.

(a)  

This medium allows differentiation of xylose fermentation, lysine decarboxylation & hydrogen sulfide production.
