Microbial Culture Techniques

A Bioflex   microbiological culture , or Bioflex   microbial culture , is a method of multiplying  microbial organisms . The microbial organisms reproduce themselves in a predetermined culture medium. This is done under controlled laboratory conditions.  The Bioflex microbial culture methods are usually selected according to the agents being cultured. The most common methods used by Bioflex microbial cultures are: Broth cultures In this method for Bioflex microbial cultures , microbial culture is liquid culture. The desired Bioflex microbial culture is suspended in a liquid nutrient medium, in an upright flask. It allows a scientist to grow up large amounts of bacteria for a variety of downstream applications. Agar plates Bioflex Microbiol Cultures are prepared in Petri dishes. These Petri dishes come in various sizes. They have a thin layer of agar-based growth medium. A Bioflex Microbial culture is selected and placed in these plates. ...

Microbiota and dysbiosis

  Written By: Dr. Senthil Subramani Biotechnologist | 10 years of experience The composition of the gut microbiota is dynamic so that it varies both in the type and in the abundance of the microbes (mainly bacteria & yeast) throughout life. Hence, the composition of the microbiota of a newborn is an emerging stage and is modified by various internal and external factors that influence its development during all stages of life. The microbiota of an infant is totally different from that of a child, a young person, an adult, or an elderly person. In addition to this physiological fact, the microbial composition of an individual is influenced by other factors that can alter the balance of the gut microbiota. The factors which cause the alteration of the microbiota composition are known as microbial disruptors. The milieu of the gut, “dysbiosis” means the condition in which the imbalance or maladaptation microbial ecosystem, causing the predominance of certain ...
