Caption:
This image depicts a close view of a Petri dish, which had contained a growth medium of egg yolk agar, that had been inoculated with Clostridium botulinum bacteria, and subsequently incubated for a 72 hour period. It is important to note the presence of what is known as the lipase reaction, which manifests as a shiny margin that surrounds each colony.
