Matière vivante, Bactéries
Les spécimens vivants sont utilisés dans une grande variété d’études, notamment pour observer les effets physiologiques des médicaments sur le rythme cardiaque d’un spécimen, l’effet de la température sur le métabolisme, la locomotion des micro-organismes, ainsi que pour étudier la respiration des plantes, la photosynthèse, la plasmolyse et plus encore. Les cultures d’algues forment des colonies cellulaires très faciles à visualiser, ce qui permet de mieux comprendre les parois cellulaires et les plastes. De nombreux spécimens vivants se reproduisent rapidement, ce qui facilite un enchaînement rapide des tests successifs.

Ward's® Live Klebsiella pneumoniae Culture - PATHOGEN
Noted for capsular swelling. Causes pneumonia and urinary tract infections.

Ward's® Live Proteus mirabilis Culture - PATHOGEN
Isolated from sewage, human intestines, and urinary tract infections. Spreading colonies are seen on agar growth medium.

Ward's® Live Pseudomonas aeruginosa culture (Pathogenic)
This organism can be isolated from many human urinary tract infections, as well as polluted water and sewage. It is commonly identified by its distinctive grape-like smell (trimethylamine) or because it can turn the agar light green due to production of a blue pigment (pyocyanin).
