"bacteria"

Freshwater. Filamentous. True branching, dimorphic structure. Basic culture solution.

Shipped in a form that provides the best quality specimen. Most are supplied in 16 x 125 mm tubes, 2 oz. jars, or 8 oz. jars..

This organism is commonly isolated from sewage, water, soil and dairy products, as it is a normal part of intestinal flora.

E. coli with JM101 can be transformed with pUC8 plasmid to become resistant to Ampicillin and to metabolize lactose

All microbial cultures undergo an extensive quality control program prior to releasing for sale, so they are guaranteed for purity as well as for species.

A Common Intestinal Flora Isolate, Demonstrates Alpha Hemolysis on Blood Agar Growth Medium

This yellow, shiny organism is known to cause wound infections and more famously, toxic shock syndrome.

Red-pigmented halophile from evaporating salt ponds; requires 25% salt medium, lyses easily in plain water, releasing DNA.

Grows on dead tissues. Novobiocin resistant (S. epidermidis and S. aureus novobiocin sensitive). 

A collection of some of the strains of Escherichia coli needed to grow various coliphages (available separately).

Isolated from human nasopharynx. Presumably not related to N. sicca; some relation to N. gonorrhoeae. Often agglutinates in saline. 

Isolated from human saliva, sputum, and intestine. No Lancefield group shown, alpha hemolysis.

Found in seawater and marine animals. Young cultures luminescent.

Frequent human isolate. Causes gastroenteritis.

From sewage and human intestine. Causes dysentery.
