rschaler Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 Hello, I was wondering if there was an explanation for a sample showing growth on selective/differential MSA agar but not showing any growth at all on TSA (non-selective) Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asthfx Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 Uhm, my guess is you have an obligate halophile, maybe you can tell where you are taking your samples from? Also, found this article that may help. Biology of Moderately Halophilic Aerobic Bacteria Quote Pseudomonas beijerinckii, grew from 3 to 18% salt but not at 0.5%, showing its obligate halophilic character.
