organism can be found. Materials and Methods The procedure for all tests performed was taken from Leboffe and Pierce’s Microbiology: Laboratory Theory and Application. The first and easiest data to record is the color of the bacterial colonies on a nutrient agar plate. Growing the cultures on the agar can be done by streaking a plate so as to isolate the bacterial colonies. Then separate the two colonies that are different in growth on a TP plate by using the same streaking techniques with a sterile
