Caption:

This photograph depicts the colonial morphology displayed by Gram-negative, Burkholderia thailandensis bacteria, which was grown on a medium of sheep’s blood agar (SBA), for a 24-hour time period, at a temperature of 37^°C. See PHIL 12424, for a closer view of these bacterial colonies. Also, see both PHIL 12401 and 12402, for views of this bacterial species, grown on the same medium, and at the same temperature, however, for a longer period of time (48hr). PHIL 12408 and 12409, also display B. thailandensis colonial growth on the same medium, but at a higher temperature (42^°C), and at twice the time period (48hr). Finally, PHIL 12431 and 12432, display this species’ bacterial growth, again on SBA, and for the same amount of time (24hr), but at a greater temperature (42^°C).
