Different media used to store or grow bacteria
Bacteria in culture. Different media used to grow or store cultures of bacteria. At centre some Petri dishes are seen in which bacteria grow in agar. This is a mucilaginous carbohydrate that is used in the form of a gel as a microbiological support medium. Cryo-tubes are seen to the left of the Petri dishes; they are used to store strains of bacteria at low temperatures. Bacteria are placed in the little holes in the beads inside the tubes. To the right a selection of sealed glass ampoules is found. They contain freeze-dried samples of bacteria

17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 17x15 inches (431x381mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the various media used to store or grow bacteria in a laboratory setting. At the center of the image, we observe Petri dishes filled with agar, a gel-like substance derived from mucilaginous carbohydrates. Agar serves as an essential support medium for microbiological research, providing a nourishing environment for bacterial growth. To the left of the Petri dishes, cryo-tubes catch our attention. These specialized tubes are designed to preserve strains of bacteria at low temperatures. Inside each tube, tiny holes hold individual beads containing bacteria samples. This innovative storage method ensures that these valuable strains remain viable and accessible for future experiments. On the right side of the image, sealed glass ampoules take center stage. These ampoules contain freeze-dried samples of bacteria, allowing researchers to maintain long-term stability and viability without refrigeration requirements. The photograph not only highlights different tools utilized in microbiology but also emphasizes their crucial role in advancing medical science and healthcare practices. Through meticulous cultivation and preservation techniques like those depicted here, scientists can delve deeper into microorganism research and gain invaluable insights into infectious diseases and potential treatments. This remarkable snapshot was captured by Science Photo Library—an esteemed source known for its exceptional visual representation of scientific concepts—showcasing the intricate world within laboratories dedicated to unraveling nature's smallest mysteries.
