Hint
Answer
What type of identification method would microscopy be?
Direct
What biosafety level would be used for a microbe which pose a high threat of life threatening illness?
4
Detection of antigens or antibodies in specimens, methods used in microbiology labs
Immunological
(e.g. Blood agar, MacConkey) – media used to distinguish between different species based on phenotypic traits
Differential
What biosafety level would be used for an exotic or indigenous microbe known to have aerosol transmission and cause moderate to lethal symptoms?
3
What biosafety level would be used for a microbe not known to cause disease?
1
Protein or nucleic acid-based detection methods used in microbiology labs
Molecular
What biosafety level would be used for a microbe known to cause mild to moderate human disease via ingestion, or mucous membrane exposure?
2
Which criteria are are still used today to establish the link between a particular microorganism and a particular disease?

Hint
Answer
(e.g. blood agar) – general purpose media supplemented with special nutrients / growth factors (more fastidious bacteria)

Use of serum antibodies (IgG) to detect and identify antigens
Serotyping
(e.g. MacConkey agar) – media that will favor the growth of some microbes and inhibit growth of others
