Q

Streaks not parallel or over lapping

A

you will pull too many cells into the next area and will not reduce the number enough to get isolated colonies

Q

Another character to look for in broths is the presence of a pellicle, or skim, on the surface of the broth. (If the broth is agi-tated, this will often fall.)
