Colony counts on strips of agar in tubes.
نویسندگان
چکیده
For viable counting, 0.1 ml. volumes of bacterial suspension were incorporated in 1.5-2 ml. nutrient agar, which after mixing was allowed to solidify in an almost horizontal test-tube so as to produce a 3 4 in. agar strip. After incubation in the vertical position, the counts of the strips gave estimates of a bacterial population which did not differ significantly from that obtained from plates inoculated with 1 ml. quantities.

Variation in colony counts of total viable anaerobic rumen bacteria as influenced by media and cultural methods.
Volume and type of medium, carbohydrate concentration, carbohydrate ratios, and inoculum level were investigated as possible factors influencing total colony counts of anaerobic rumen bacteria obtained in roll tubes (18 by 150 mm). Colony counts were lower when the rumen fluid was clarified by centrifugation before inclusion in the medium; however, decreasing the volume of 40% rumen fluid gluco...
متن کاملScanning electron microscopy of bacterial colonies.
A technique is described for observing bacterial colony growth. Bacillus cereus, B. subtilis, and B. cereus var. mycoides were grown on strips of dialysis membrane layered on nutrient agar. Microcolonies of the organisms on strips were fixed in Formalin vapor in situ; the strips then were removed from the agar and secured to scanning microscope specimen stubs without markedly disturbing the cel...
متن کاملInvestigation of the effect of buckling initiator on energy absorption of thin-walled circular tubes by using of numerical simulation
Cylindrical thin-walled tubes due to construction and easy installation, high energy absorption capacity are used in the automotive industry as an impact energy absorber. However, the main weakness of cylindrical tubes is in the high initial peak load. Therefore, in this paper, to overcome this weakness, a buckling initiator is used at the top of the tube. This buckling initiator is a steel rod...
متن کاملEffect of Growth Media and Incubation Time on the Culturability of Soil Bacteria
The effect of growth medium and incubation time were investigated by determining the number of colonies that were visible on triplicate plates of three different media on daily intervals. The viable counts were significantly different between the three different media even after the first day and this continued for seven days. Colony counts on the three media reached their maximum on the third ...

tions and advantages of this method have been reported (Barber, J. MIilk & Food Technol., 12, 257-266, 1949), and it is well to point out here the obvious economy in incubator space, agar medium, time, and productivity. Usually, 4 to 5 ml of agar are used per tube. Samples (1 ml or some fraction thereof) aire added to the sterile, melted, and tempered agar; the tubes are agitated gently, slante...
