It's very common for species of all kinds and bacteria and basically anything in the scientific world to be named after its discoverers," said Jess Zafarris, an author of etymology books who writes ...

The objective of this study was to analyze the antimicrobial effect of 2% sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) and 2% chlorhexidine (CHX) by agar diffusion test and by direct exposure test. Five microorganisms ...

In this two-part, hands-on workshop, you will create your own agar art using live microbes. Photos of the art created in this workshop are eligible to enter the American Society of Microbiology ...

Formats Individual hairpins come as bacterial agar stab cultures. You will need to re-streak the bacteria from the surface of the culture onto an LB-Amp plate, pick a single colony, grow, prepare and ...

EZ-Spread™ Plating Beads from AMSBIO allow you to spread bacterial and yeast cells across the surface of an agar plate in just seconds. Eliminating the traditional need for glass rods and potentially ...

My first experiment with bacteria involved counting green and white colonies on an agar plate — a dish filled with a jelly-like food source on which you can grow bacteria.

Agar is a polysaccharide-based hydrocolloid synthesized in the cell walls of red seaweed, known as agarophytes. 1 Owing to its unique gel-forming ability, agar has wide-ranging applications that ...

Airborne particles were allowed 90 minutes to settle on the surface of the agar plates. The plates were incubated for two days, and then the researchers examined what bacterial colonies had grown.

Agar is still a standard way of growing microbes in a lab. One way to transfer bacteria to an agar plate is with a stick that leaves a pattern of microbes behind, as if they were drawn.
