MacConkey agar (MAC) is a selective and differential bacterial culture media. MacConkey medium is selective for gram-negative bacteria and differentiates the gram-negative bacteria based on lactose metabolism.
10 wrz 2024 · MacConkey agar (MAC) is a bacterial culture medium named after bacteriologist Alfred T. MacConkey (1861-1931). MacConkey agar is a selective and differentiating agar that only grows gram-negative bacterial species; it can further differentiate the gram-negative organisms based on their lactose metabolism. [1]
MacConkey agar is a selective and differential culture medium for bacteria. It is designed to selectively isolate gram-negative and enteric (normally found in the intestinal tract) bacteria and differentiate them based on lactose fermentation. [1] Lactose fermenters turn red or pink on MacConkey agar, and nonfermenters do not change color.
