This makes the medium selective for gram-negative bacteria, allowing them to grow while inhibiting the growth of gram-positive bacteria.
Sodium azide is included in the Bile Esculin test to inhibit the growth of Gram-negative organisms, which could interfere with the test results. Sodium azide helps to maintain a selective environment that favors the growth of group D streptococci, the target organisms for the test.
Yes, comparing the growth on the Columbia CNA agar plate would have been more informative as it contains colistin and nalidixic acid inhibitors to select for Gram-positive organisms. This allows for better differentiation and identification of Gram-positive bacteria based on their ability to grow or inhibit growth on this selective media.
Most gram positive bacteria do not grow on MacConkey agar or Eosin Methylene Blue (EMB) agar, as these are selective media designed to inhibit the growth of gram positive organisms. So, typically, you would not expect a gram positive bacteria to grow on these media.
"Positive organisms" is a term that typically refers to microbes that have beneficial effects on their environment, such as by promoting health or growth in plants, animals, or humans. Examples include probiotic bacteria in the gut that aid in digestion or nitrogen-fixing bacteria in soil that enhance plant growth.
High salt concentrations can inhibit the growth of some gram positive bacteria by causing water to move out of bacterial cells through osmosis, leading to dehydration and cell death. However, some gram positive bacteria are halotolerant or halophilic, meaning they can tolerate or even thrive in high salt environments due to special adaptations that help them maintain cell structure and function under these conditions.

EMB plate dyes inhibit the growth of Gram-positive bacteria and promote the growth of Gram-negative bacteria. The dyes in EMB plates help differentiate between the two types of bacteria based on their ability to ferment lactose. Gram-negative bacteria that ferment lactose will produce dark colonies with a metallic green sheen.
Folisin is a product for hair loss in men. To create the recipe of the food supplement, as many as 13 ingredients were used that inhibit baldness, support hair growth and have a positive effect on the condition of the scalp cutt.ly/7h0ibgj
Antibiotics are chemicals produced by living organisms that kill or inhibit the growth of other organisms, particularly bacteria.
High concentrations of salt inhibit the growth of non-halophilic organisms but allow for the growth of bacteria from the genus Staphylococci.
Staphylococcus epidermidis is a gram-positive bacterium and does not ferment lactose. Therefore, on a MacConkey agar plate, S. epidermidis would appear as colorless, indicating a negative result for lactose fermentation. Additionally, there would not be any pink or red colonies representing acid production.
Genetics is the primary factor in an organism's ability to grow, although availability of nutrients can inhibit an organisms size as well.
Spaying does not inhibit a dog's growth. The growth plates in a dog's bones close at around 8-14 months of age, regardless of whether they are spayed or not. Spaying can sometimes result in less food intake, which could affect nutrition and growth if not monitored properly.

The medication is designed to inhibit the growth of bacteria in the body.

the skin has keratin which resist micoorganism entry and also it is dry hence inhibit microbial growth
