Title: Differential Media
Post by: Zynoakib on Sep 25, 2014
In my notes, it says we can distinguish bacteria based on their morphology and biochemically related groups of organisms when we use differential media.

What does it mean bu biochemically related groups of organisms?

The way I interpret it is that some bacteria produce different enzymes or have different lifecycles, i.e. they form spores and this can be a distinguishing factor.
