  • subculturing
  • culturing
  • media transfer
  • transfer technique
2
in microbiology laboratory, media types of AGAR SLANTS, AGAR BUTTS, AND AGAR BROTHS are used.
  • true
  • false
3
a solid media in a test tube with a slated surface on which to culture the microorganism. Typically inoculated by streaking the surface of the slant with a sterile loop.
  • AGAR SLANT
  • AGAR DEEP
  • AGAR PLATE
  • BROTH TUBES
4
solid media which does not have a slanted surface. Typically inoculated by stabbing the media with a sterile needle.
  • AGAR SLANT
  • AGAR PLATE
  • AGAR DEEP
  • BROTH TUBE
5
solid media which is contained in a Petri plate, providing optimal surface on which to culture organisms.
Inoculated by streaking the surface with sterile loop.
  • AGAR SLANT
  • AGAR DEEP
  • AGAR PLATE
  • BROTH TUBE
6
a liquid medium which can be inoculated by a sterile loop, needle, or pipette.
  • AGAR SLANT
  • AGAR DEEP
  • AGAR PLATE
  • BROTH TUBE

STREAK PLATE METHOD

A-1st stment true,2nd stment false
B-1st stment false, 2nd stment true
C-both stment is true
D-both stment is false


sterilize the loop or needle by holding the wire in the flame of alcohol lamp until its yellow hot.While holding the sterile loop or need, ise the little finger to remove the cap or cotton plug of. the culture media.

Briefly heat the mouth of the tube in the flame before inserting the loop or needle for an inoculum. Fish a loopful of specimen, heat the mouth of the tube and replace the cap or cotton plug.
