We autoclaved three different agar media and poured plates:
Nutrient Agar:
- 2 g Carolina Nutrient Broth Mix
- 2.5 g Agar
- 250 ml distilled water
CCL1:
- 6.3 g soy powder
- 0.63 g K2 HPO4
- 1.56 g NaOAc
- 0.055 g magnesium chloride
- 0.016 manganese chloride
- 2.5 g agar
- 6.25 glucose
- 270 ml distilled water
MSY
- 2% soy powder
- 0.5% yeast extract
- 1.5% agar
CCL1 overflowed in the autoclave, so we were only able to pour the MSY and Nutrient Broth plates.
We also inoculated bacterial cultures on 2% skim milk (Berkeley Farms DairyPure), from freezedried commercial cultures:
- Streptococcus thermophilus
- Streptococcus salivarius ssp. thermophilus
- Lactobacillus paracasei
