For the growth of microorganism in invitro conditions a suitable medium is necessary. So for the  growth of  microorganisms in any artificial condition, a liquid, semi solid or solid medium is designed to support the growth of microorganisms and the medium is known as microbial culture medium. There were different classification of microbial culture medium:- 1.Based on the concentration of solidifying agent used in the culture medium. 2.Based on their Oxygen demand. 3.Based on the ingredients used in the medium Table of Content 1.Based on the concentration of solidifying agent used in the culture medium. 2.Based on their Oxygen demand. 3.Based on the ingredients used in the medium 1. Based on the concentration of solidifying agent used in the culture medium. The microbial culture is again classified in to three, based on the concentration of agar agar.  a) Solid medium Here, 2% of agar concentration is used. By using the above culture medium, bacteria can be identified ea...

Bacteria are the oldest, abundant single celled prokaryotic microorganisms seen on our surroundings. They can thrive in diverse environments and most bacteria are harmless. They play a major role in maintaining our ecosystem. An interesting fact is that our human body is also inhabited by some of them. They have plenty of applications in the field of agriculture, medicine and pharmacology.  However, relatively some strains of bacteria  are considered as pathogens and cause infectious disease. Now a days bacterial infections can easily treated with vaccines and antibiotics. A major threat is that bacterial strains are become antibiotic resistant. Bacteria can be classified in to gram positive and gram negative depending upon the staining methods. Here, In this article we will focus  on the top 10 infections caused by different bacterial strains. Let’s discuss about the top 10 infectious bacterial disease:-  Table of content 10.  Cholera (watery diarrhoea) 9....
