Selective Medium: culture medium that allows the growth of certain types of organisms, while inhibiting the growth of other organisms ... Differential Medium: culture medium that allows one to distinguish between or among different microorganisms based on a difference in colony appearance (color, shape, or growth pattern)

Differential Media: These are media in which some metabolic activity of an organism can be detected by inspection of the growth of the organism on the medium. This is often accomplished by observing changes in the color of a pH indicator. ... Note: Some media can be both selective and differential.

contain a variety of dyes and bile salts to allow the selective growth of the gram negative enteric organisms. These media also contain sugars (such as lactose) and pH indicators to allow one to distinguish between different organisms based on their metabolic abilities.

Selective media favor the growth of particular microorganisms. Bile salt or dye like basic fuschin and crystal violet favor the growth of gram-negative bacteria by inhibiting the growth of gram positive bacteria. Maconkey agar is widely use...
