- -Nutrient
agar : It produces Circular, smooth, Convex and
opaque colonies.
- - Blood agar : It
produces marked hemolytic (β- hemolysis) colony. (Sheep blood)

Salt agar (MSA) : It produce yellow
colonies with yellow zones, whereas other Staphylococci produce pink
or red colonies without color change of the medium
- -Liquid
medium : Uniform
turbidity
- -Selective medium: Salt milk agar ,Salt broth
Nutrient Agar |
Blood Agar |

by converting fibrinogen to fibrin in palsma.
Carbohydrate fermentation : S. aureus ferment
mostly mannitol sugar and produce acid
without gas.
