This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: LAB 2 - ASEPTIC TECHNIQUE AND TRANSFER OF MICROORGANISMS - TERMINOLOGY, aerotolerant anaerobe definition Cannot use oxygen for growth but tolerate it fairly well., medium definition Anything in or on which we grow a microorganism., psychrophile definition Cold-loving bacteria. Their optimum growth temperature is between -5°C and 15°C., inoculum definition The organisms being transferred during an inoculation., growth of microorganisms forms of culture media agar cultures (solid medium), Terminology growing microbes growth of microorganisms, Terminology colonies colonies and pigmentation, agar cultures (solid medium) types slant tube, obligate aerobes definition Organisms that grow only in the presence of oxygen., microaerophile definition Organisms that require a low concentration of oxygen for growth., Terminology temperature temperature requirements, water-insoluble pigment definition The pigment does not diffuse out of the organism. As a result, the colonies are pigmented but the agar remains the normal color., colony definition A visible mass of microorganisms growing on an agar surface and usually originating from a single organism or arrangement of organisms., sterile definition Free of all life forms., growth of microorganisms forms of culture media broth cultures (liquid medium), hyperthermophile definition Bacteria that grow at very high temperatures. Their optimum growth temperature is between 70°C and 110°C., pure culture definition A culture in which all organisms are descendants of the same organism., growth of microorganisms terms pure culture, temperature requirements terms psychrophile, obligate anaerobe definition Organisms that grow only without oxygen. Oxygen inhibits or kills them.
