Growing Microbes. Microbes can be grown or cultured outside of a host using nutrients. This is called media. Some media are just broths, kind of like soup while others are solids. In order to make the media solid, agar is added to the media as shown on the left. Each one of those blobs is a colony of a microbe. They are growing separately on the surface and embedded in the agar.

 

 

Disease causing microbes. Microbes that cause disease are called pathogens.
