Chocolate agar is an enriched agar media- used to grow fastidious cultures like Neisseria gonococcus, N. meningitis. water, nutrient broths & nutrient agar. Selective media = Media providing a means of isolating a particular species or type or Nutrient broth containing 0.5% agar. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Does Streptococcus grow on chocolate agar? The sugar lactose, bile salts, and the pH indicator neutral red enable differentiation between enteric bacteria based on their ability to ferment lactose. The treatment and control of gonorrhea is complicated by increasing resistance to a variety of antimicrobial agents, including penicillin, tetracycline, and fluoroquinolones. - They are used for the growth of Gram positive cocci and Gram negative fastidious organisms ( see below ) like Neisseria and Haemophilus species. E.g. Chocolate agar also contains red blood cells, but with chocolate agar, the blood is autoclaved, thus changing the red blood cells to a brown color. - Blood agar and Chocolate agar are enriched media. media may be divided in different ways:-. Chocolate agar (CHOC) or chocolate blood agar (CBA), is a nonselective, enriched growth medium used for isolation of pathogenic bacteria. Type b Haemophilus influenzae can cause meningitis, epiglottitis, bacteremia, and cellulitis. Chocolate agar is enriched with heat-treated blood (40–45 °C), which turns brown and gives the medium the color for which it is named. Found inside – Page 24... and chocolate agar.

All the microorganisms demand basic requirements, although there is a variation as to the application of organic and inorganic compoun… non motile strains. Crystal violet dye and bile salts inhibit most Gram-positive organisms. In the medium shown above, the bacterium only ferments maltose and dextrose, so the tops of the mediums turned yellow. This is a selective for the growth of stool organisms (. • Used to grow bacteria that are exacting in their nutritional needs. Solid agar is made from water, nutrients, and agarose gel, a solidifying agent. E.g. blood agar (Streptococcus), chocolate agar (Neisseria, Haemophilus). Chocolate agar is used for growing fastidious respiratory bacteria, such as Haemophilus influenzae and Neisseria meningitidis. Crystal violet blood agar. BD BBL™ Prepared Plated Media: Chocolate II Agar (GC II Agar with Hemoglobin and IsoVitaleX™) For the isolation and cultivation of fastidious microorganisms, especially Neisseria and Haemophilus species, from a variety of clinical specimens. There are some delicate microorganism which may not survive the time taken for It is a variant of the blood agar plate, containing red blood cells that have been lysed by slowly heating to 80°C. Chocolate agar is prepared by heating blood agar, which in turn ruptures the red blood cell (RBC) and releases nutrients that aid in the growth of fastidious bacteria, most notably Haemophilus and Neisseria species. Enriched media are used to grow nutritionally exacting (fastidious) bacteria. MEDIA: - In this media 1% Chocolate agar with GC base and growth supplement: It is a medium that supports the special growth requirements (hemin and NAD) needed for the isolation of fastidious organisms, such as H. influenzae, when incubated at 35-37°C in a 5% CO 2 atmosphere. They detect organisms that are difficult to grow, such as Haemophilus influenzae and Neisseria gonorrhoeae. 2. media have specific composition and are used for the assay of vitamins, amino MEDIA: - These media is used for transporting the media. H. influenzae appear as large, round, smooth, convex, colorless-to-grey, opaque colonies on a CAP (Figure 1). It needs to be used correctly to facilitate the growth of most pathogens in clinical infections. Philippinjl assumed (based on copyright claims). antibiotic assay These media are used for culture of bacteria. E.g. bacteria grow to produce and form to sulphide in the presence of glucose and the colonies have a black metallic form.
