1. Dehydrated culture media – These might be in a powder form or a Jelly-like substances and once poured into petri dishes, further experimentation can be done in it. these media are available in a dry, powdered form and need to be reconstituted with water before use. They offer several advantages over ready-to-use liquid media, including cost-effectiveness, longer shelf life, and reduced storage and shipping costs. Why Powdered? Multiple uses, easy transportability, Higher Shelf Life (Less Contaminated)
   a. Selective Media – Selective media are used to select for the growth of a particular “selected” microorganism
   b. Differential Media – Differential media contain indicators that allow differentiation between different types of microorganisms
   c. Transport Media – This media is used for transporting delicate organisms, which may not survive in the time taken for transporting their specimen
