Culture #:[Type here] Organism:[Type here] Name: Combination Media: Mystery Organism Identification You will be given a pure culture of one of three organisms. Your assignment is to identify which of the three possibilities is in your culture tube. To do this, you will use two different types of media: Mannitol Salt Agar and MacConkey's Agar. Complete the table below by predicting the reactions of each organism on each medium (Growth or no growth? If you expect growth, what color should it be?). Do this before coming to lab on the due date. The information about each organism below and the information found in the theory sections for the labs should help you make your predictions. If you complete this table correctly, it will be a big help to you while you try to identify MSA MAC your mystery organism!…arrow_forward
