- Mar 11, 2015 11:51 AM CDT. Haemocyanin is blue because it is copper based - when copper oxidizes it turns bluish green (think the statue of liberty.) Our blood is red because it is iron based and when iron oxidzes it turns red (think rust).

Meaning of Different Sputum Colors Tweet. The color of sputum or phlegm, which is the mucus and sometimes pus discharge expectorated from the respiratory tract, is often an indication of the type of respiratory disease that gives rise to sputum production.ith infections, the green sputum will be more purulent (large amounts of pus) while in non-infectious inflammatory conditions, the green sputum will be more mucoid (large amounts of mucus). 1  Pneumonia – white, yellow or green. 2  Lung abscess – green, sudden accumulation of large amount of sputum if the abscess ruptures.

- MR-VP Tests. Methyl Red (MR) and Voges-Proskauer (VP) broth is used as a part of the IMViC tests as the medium in which both the Methyl Red and Voges-Prosakuer tests can be performed. It is a simple broth that contains peptone, buffers, and dextrose or glucose.hen methyl red is added, if acidic end products are present, the methyl red will stay red. NOTE: Methyl red differs from Phenol red (which is used in the fermentation test and the MSA plates) in that it is yellow at pH 6.2 and above and red at pH 4.4 and below.

The Chemistry of The Colours of Blood This colour is caused by yet another different respiratory pigment, this time one called haemorythrin. Haemorythrin contains individual units which themselves contain iron atoms; when deoxygenated, the blood is colourless, but when oxygenated it is a bright violet-pink.

- A micrograph depicting Streptococcus agalactiae bacteria. Colonial Morphology and Identification: Colonial morphology of S. agalactiae in culture is typically gray to whitish-gray in colour when grown on sheep blood agar.As mentioned, most strains of this organism are beta-hemolytic, suggesting that they are able to lyse red blood cells and grow on blood agar medium.In addition, the CAMP test is an important test for its identification (Figure 2). Mainly Streptococcus agalactiae bacteria are screened through this test. micrograph depicting Streptococcus agalactiae bacteria.

Blood Color Venous blood is darker (more crimson) than arterial blood (more cherry red). The red to dark red color of the blood is due to the large numbers of circulating red blood cells, the erythrocytes. Erythrocytes are called red blood cells because they have hemoglobin, an iron containing pigment.

The Different Blood Tests and Tube Colors Used by Healthcare Professionals Gold or red/gray rubber top tube known as a tiger tube contains a clot activator and gel and is used for serum separation. Red top tube also has a clot activator and is used to collect serum to test for infectious diseases, or routine blood donor screening. Orange or grey/yellow rubber top contains thrombin, which is used as a rapid clot activator, used for serum testing required right away. slide 3 of 6.

- 9 Answers. Human blood is red, ranging from bright red when oxygenated to dark red when not. It owes its color to hemoglobin, to which oxygen binds. Deoxygenated blood is darker due to the difference in color between deoxyhemoglobin and oxyhemoglobin. There exists a popular misconception that deoxygenated blood is blue and that blood only becomes red when it comes into contact with oxygen.

- Pathogenic Staph, such as Staphylococcus aureus, are mannitol fermenters, and when growing on Mannitol Salt Agar, their wastes turn the MSA a bright yellow color.

DIFFERENT TYPES OF AGAR Mac Conkeyâs Agar plate A common application of this stain is in the preparation of EMB agar, a differential microbiological medium, which inhibits the growth of Gram-positive bacteria and provides a color indicator distinguishing between organisms that ferment lactose (e.g., E. coli) and those that do not (e.g., Salmonella, Shigella). On EMB if E.coli is grown it will give a distinctive metallic green sheen (due to the metachromatic properties of the dyes, E. coli movement using flagella, and strong acid end-products of fermentation). It is one of the few bacte Examples of EMB with different coliform bacteria.

- Several media are available for this. Most commonly used is phenol red lactose broth. The medium is a nutrient broth to which 0.5-1.0% lactose is added. The p H indicator phenol red is red at neutral p H but turns yellow at p H H.f lactose is fermented to produce acid end products, the p H of the medium will drop. A p H indicator in the medium changes color to indicate acid production.

What colour is blood without oxygen? This is due to oxygenated iron in the red blood cells. Deoxygenated blood… is a darker shade of red, which can be seen during blood donation and when venous blood samples are taken. However, due to an optical effect caused by the way in which light penetrates through the skin, veins typically appear blue in color.

Growth Media The other half (B) is covered with E. coli-agar. Most pathogens of the urinary tract grow on CLED agar and if they are lactose fermenting, the colour of CLED agar changes from green to yellow. The MacConkey agar is used to grow mainly gram negative bacteria.

- Lactose positive colonies are visibly different from lactose negative colonies on both types of media. EMB agar Plate Test: Eosin methylene blue agar, as the name suggests, contains the dyes eosin and methylene blue. EMB agar is selective because the aniline dyes in this purple media inhibit growth of Gram-positive organisms. Lactose fermenters metabolize the lactose in the media and produce acid byproducts, causing a color change in the colony. Thus, EMB is also a differential medium.

Types of Blood Tubes Colors of Blood Tubes. But first, let’s look at the blood tubes; the colors of the blood tubes. First of all, we have the blood culture tubes. The blood cultures are drawn from the large tubes with a growth medium in them, and sometimes you’ll draw two blood culture tubes, one for an aerobic variety and one for an anaerobic variety of bacteria.

Blood Specimen Collection and Processing The recommended order of draw for plastic vacutainer tubes is: 1  First - blood culture bottle or tube (yellow or yellow-black top) 2  Second - coagulation tube (light blue top). 3  Third - non-additive tube (red top)  Last draw - additive tubes in this order: SST (red-gray or gold top).
