What is an example of differential media? Examples of differential media include: Blood agar (used in strep tests), which contains bovine heart blood that becomes transparent in the presence of hemolytic. Streptococcuseosin methylene blue (EMB), which is differential for lactose and sucrose fermentation. Can a media be both selective and differential? Selective and differential media can be combined and play an important role in the identification of bacteria by biochemical methods. Another commonly used medium that is both selective and differential is eosin-methylene blue (EMB) agar. Therefore, EMB is selective for gram-negatives. What are the differences between selective and differential...
