  1. 1[blank_start]General[blank_end] [blank_start]purpose[blank_end] media is used to grow bacteria and fungi that are not fastidious. It is nonselective, complex formula with milk protein, soybean protein and sodium chloride. examples: [blank_start]tryptic[blank_end] [blank_start]soy[blank_end], nutrient agar, and [blank_start]brain[blank_end] [blank_start]heart[blank_end] [blank_start]infusion[blank_end]
    1. AGeneral
    2. Bpurpose
    3. Ctryptic
    4. Dsoy
    5. Ebrain
    6. Fheart
    7. Ginfusion
  2. 2Thioglycolate broth is a [blank_start]reducing[blank_end] media that can determine [blank_start]oxygen requirements[blank_end] and allows all organisms to grow including [blank_start]anaerobic[blank_end] organisms
    1. Areducing
    2. Boxygen requirements
    3. Canaerobic
  3. 3[blank_start]Transport[blank_end] media is used to keep bacteria alive until it can be cultured in a lab. It has buffers and [blank_start]salts[blank_end] that [blank_start]inhibit[blank_end] growth. Ex: Annie's Stuarts and Cary Blair
    1. ATransport
    2. Bsalts
    3. Cinhibit
  4. 4[blank_start]Enriched[blank_end] media has added nutrient from blood, serum, hemoglobin, eggs, or growth factors such as vitamins and nutrients. It allows [blank_start]fastidious[blank_end] organisms to grow. Examples: blood agar and [blank_start]chocolate[blank_end] agar
    1. AEnriched
    2. Bfastidious
    3. Cchocolate
  5. 5[blank_start]Selective[blank_end] media inhibits one group of organisms while allowing another to grow. It has chemical additives such as salts, bile salts, dyes, alcohols, and antibiotics. It can be used to [blank_start]inhibit[blank_end] normal flora to identify [blank_start]pathogens[blank_end]
    1. ASelective
    2. Binhibit
    3. Cpathogens
  6. 6[blank_start]Differential[blank_end] media shows when a particular biochemical reaction has taken place to identify an organism. If the organism as a certain bacterial [blank_start]enzyme[blank_end] and biochemical reaction takes place and the color changes.
    1. ADifferential
    2. Benzyme
  7. 7Phenylethyl agar is [blank_start]selective[blank_end] for gram [blank_start]positive[blank_end] organisms (s. aureus) and [blank_start]bacteriostatic[blank_end] for gram [blank_start]negative[blank_end] organisms (e. coli). It dissolves [blank_start]lipopolysaccharides[blank_end] in cell wall and inhibits DNA synthesis
    1. Aselective
    2. Bpositive
    3. Cbacteriostatic
    4. Dnegative
    5. Elipopolysaccharides
  8. 8Thioglycolate broth is [blank_start]enriched[blank_end] and [blank_start]differential[blank_end]. It allows all organisms to grow including anaerobic.
    1. Aenriched
    2. Bdifferential
  9. 9MacConkey's agar: [blank_start]selective[blank_end] because it inhibits gram [blank_start]positive[blank_end] organisms and allows gram [blank_start]negative[blank_end] enterobacteriacea to grow. also [blank_start]differential[blank_end] because lactose fermentation which leads to acid production shows if it is e. coli ([blank_start]bright[blank_end] [blank_start]pink[blank_end] when fermentation causes acid production)
    1. Aselective
    2. Bpositive
    3. Cnegative
    4. Ddifferential
    5. Ebright
    6. Fpink
  10. 10Eosin methylene blue agar: [blank_start]differential[blank_end] when the fermentation of lactose leads to acid production (lactose positive = E. coli) and no acid production (lactose neg = salmonella/shigella) also [blank_start]selective[blank_end] allows gram [blank_start]negative[blank_end] but inhibits gram [blank_start]positive[blank_end]
    1. Adifferential
    2. Bselective
    3. Cnegative
    4. Dpositive
