Agar types Bacterial pigment Colony Morphology
Enteric pathogens Enterococcus MacConkey agar & Lactose fermentation Mannitol salt agar
Pneumococcus Quantitative urine cultures Minimum Inhibitory Concentration N. gonorrhea
CAMP test Direct sensitivity McFarland turbidity standard Hemolysis (alpha, beta, gamma)
Catalase test Testing for beta-lactamase Kirby-Bauer (disk diffusion) antibiotic suseptibility testing Neisseria: gonorrhea versus meningititis
Plating from blood culture bottles MIC and MBC Anaerobic Jar ASLO
Haemophilus: X and V factor Volumetric Loop Fastidious vs. Non-fastidious bacteria A Taxo: Throat Cultures
Mixed Culture, Selective Plating
