  2. Thioglycolate broth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thioglycolate_broth

    5: Aerotolerant organisms do not require oxygen as they metabolise energy anaerobically. Unlike obligate anaerobes, though, they are not poisoned by oxygen. They can be found evenly spread throughout the test tube. Thioglycolate broth is a multipurpose, enrichment, differential medium used primarily to determine the oxygen requirements of ...

  3. Obligate anaerobe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obligate_anaerobe

    Aerobic and anaerobic bacteria can be identified by growing them in test tubes of thioglycollate broth: 1: Obligate aerobes need oxygen because they cannot ferment or respire anaerobically. They gather at the top of the tube where the oxygen concentration is highest.

  4. Aerobic organism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerobic_organism

    Aerobic and anaerobic bacteria can be identified by growing them in test tubes of thioglycolate broth: 1: Obligate aerobes need oxygen because they cannot ferment or respire anaerobically. They gather at the top of the tube where the oxygen concentration is highest.

  5. Microaerophile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microaerophile

    4: Microaerophiles need oxygen because they cannot ferment or respire anaerobically. However, they are poisoned by high concentrations of oxygen. They gather in the upper part of the test tube but not the very top. 5: Aerotolerant organisms do not require oxygen as they metabolise energy anaerobically. Unlike obligate anaerobes however, they ...

  6. Facultative anaerobic organism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Facultative_anaerobic_organism

    The ability of facultative anaerobic pathogens to survive without oxygen is important since their infection is shown to reduce oxygen levels in their host's gut tissue. [13] Moreover, the ability of facultative anaerobes to limit oxygen levels at infection sites is beneficial to them and other bacteria, as dioxygen can form reactive oxygen ...

  7. Alcaligenes faecalis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcaligenes_faecalis

    Alcaligenes faecalis is a species of Gram-negative, rod-shaped bacteria commonly found in the environment.It was originally named for its first discovery in feces, but was later found to be common in soil, water, and environments in association with humans.

  8. Mesophile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesophile

    Mesophiles have diverse classifications, belonging to two domains: Bacteria, Archaea, and to kingdom Fungi of domain Eucarya. Mesophiles belonging to the domain Bacteria can either be gram-positive or gram-negative. Oxygen requirements for mesophiles can be aerobic or anaerobic. There are three basic shapes of mesophiles: coccus, bacillus, and ...

  9. Aerotolerant anaerobe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerotolerant_anaerobe

    Anaerobic bacteria can be identified by growing them in test tubes of thioglycollate broth: 1: Obligate aerobes need oxygen because they cannot ferment or respire anaerobically. They gather at the top of the tube where the oxygen concentration is highest.
