    To begin, a streak was performed on two TSA plates and a blood agar plate using the three-sector streak technique from the unknown culture tube to isolate the two unknown bacterial colonies. The plates were then incubated for 12 hours at 37 ̊C. The blood agar plate was used to create a greater contrast in color to help distinguish between bacterial colonies by size and color. Two distinct colonies could be seen growing on the blood agar plate shown in figure 1. The smaller, opaque colored…
