Types of culture media

1. Types of culture media Prepared by Samira fattah Assis. Lec. College of health sciences-HMU Lab 5
2.?What is culture medium ? The food material or substances required for growing microorganisms in vitro (outside the body) is called culture medium.
3.?Uses of culture medium It is important to grow microorganisms outside the body for the following purposes: 1. to identify the cause of infection from the clinical sample, so that proper treatment can be given. 2. to study the characteristics or properties of microorganisms. 4. to prepare biological products like vaccines, toxoides, antigens…etc.
5.?Composition of culture media ? Water ? Energy source ? Carbon source ? Nitrogen source ? Mineral salts ? Special growth factors
6.?Types of culture media I. Classification based on physical state a) solid medium b) semi solid medium c) liquid medium
7.?II. Classification based on the ingredients a) simple medium b) complex medium c) synthetic or defined medium d) Special media
8.?Classification based on physical state Solid medium agar is the most commonly used solidifying agent. What is agar ? Golden –yellow granular powder ? Prepared from seaweeds. ? Not affected by the growth of the bacteria. ? Melts at 98oC & sets at 42oC
9.Semi-solid media Such media are soft and are useful in demonstrating bacterial motility and separating motile from non- motile strains .
10.Liquid media are sometimes referred as “ broth “. bacteria grow uniformly producing general turbidity eg. Nutrient broth
11.?Classification based on the ingredients Simple media - eg: Nutrient broth, N. agar - NB consists of peptone, meat extract, NaCl, - NB + 2% agar = Nutrient agar
12.?Complex media such as blood agar, it has ingredients that exact components are difficult to estimate.
13.?Synthetic or defined media ? specially prepared media from pure chemical substances for research purpose and composition of every component is well known ? eg: peptone water – 1% peptone + 0.5% NaCl in water.
14.?Special media ? Enriched media ? Selective media ? Differential media ? Transport media ? Anaerobic media
15.?Enriched media ? Substances like blood, serum, egg are added to the simple medium. ? Used to grow bacteria that are exacting in their nutritional needs. ? eg: Blood agar, Chocolate agar
16.?Blood agar BAP contains mammalian blood(usually sheep or horse) typically at a concentration of 5-10%, used to isolate fastidious organisms and detect hemolysis. Chocolate agar contain red blood cells that have been lysed by slowly heating to 80 c .and it used for growing fastidious bacteria, such as Haemophilus influenzae
17.?Selective media ? The inhibitory substance is added to a solid media to inhibit commensal or contaminating bacteria such as : ? Antibiotics ? Dyes ? Chemicals ? Alteration of pH
18.?Examples Thayer Martin medium selective for Neisseria gonorrhoeae ? It usually contains the following combination of antibiotics: ? Vancomycin: which is able to kill most Gram-positive organisms. ? Colistin,: which is added to kill most Gram-negative organisms except Neisseria. ? Nystatin,: which can kill most fungi ? Trimethoprim: which inhibits Gram-negative organisms, especially swarming Proteus.
19.?Eosin methylene blue ? selective for gram negative bacteria ? The dye methylene blue in the medium inhibit the growth of gram positive bacteria.
20.?Campylobacter agar ? Is used for isolation of Campylobacter jejuni from fecal or rectal swab. ? Contain Bacteriological charcoal , Cefoperazone and Amphotericin B.
21.?Lowenstein –Jenson medium ? is solid medium used for Mycobacterium tuberculosis. ? contain penicillin, nalidixic acid and malachite green to inhibit growth of gram positive and gram negative bacteria, in order to limit growth to Mycobacteria species only.
22.?? Differential media ? are designed in such a way that different bacteria can be recognized on the basis of their colony color. ? Dyes and metabolic substrates are incorporated so that those bacteria that utilize them appear as differently colored colonies. Examples: ? MacConkey agar ? CLED agar ? TCBS agar ? XLD agar
23.?Examples MacConkey medium ? Distinguish between lactose fermenters & non lactose fermenters. ? Lactose fermenters – Pink colonies ? Non lactose fermenters – colorless colonies
24.?Examples Xylose Lysine Deoxycholate Agar(XLD) ? Used for the recovery of Salmonella and Shigella species.
25.?Examples Cysteine Lactose Electrolyte Deficient Agar(CLED) ? For cultivation of pathogen from urine specimen , inhibit swarming of proteus sp. CLED, serratiadfd
26.?Examples Thiosulfate-citrate-bile salts-sucrose agar(TCBS) ? highly selective for the isolation of V. cholerae and V. parahaemolyticus Yellow coloured (sucrose fermenting) colonies of Vibrio cholerae on TCBS agar.
27.?Transport media ? Media used for transporting the samples. ? Delicate organisms may not survive the time taken for transporting the specimen without a transport media. ? Eg: – Stuart’s medium – Buffered glycerol saline
28.?Anaerobic media ? These media are used to grow anaerobic organisms. Eg: ? Robertson’s cooked meat medium. ? Thioglycolate broth medium.
29.?Media Preparation
30.?Assemble all of your chemicals in your work area before you begin.
31.?Accurately weigh each of the dry ingredients in your culture media.
32.?Add each dry culture medium ingredient into a flask.
33.?Add distilled water to make the correct volume. Heat AND stir (agar will burn if it is not stirred) until all of the ingredients go into solution. When the media boils, it is ready for sterilization.
34.?Media Sterilization
35.?Sterilize by using the wet cycle (autoclave) . Remember to cover the top of the flask or jar with aluminum foil to prevent contamination when as the media cools.
36.?Line your sterile petri plates along the edge of the table. Pour 15-20 ml of the media into each petri plate. The petri plate lid should be open slightly, but not completely open as this increases contamination.
37.?Lab exercise ? Student will observe different types of culture media and try to identifiy each one of them.
