Comparison of two culture media types used to grow Neisseria gonorrhoeae bacteria.

Known as overgrowth , note that the non-selective w:en:chocolate agar medium on the left, due to its composition, allowed for the growth of organismal colonies other than those of w:en:Neisseria gonorrhoeae , while the selective Thayer-Martin medium on the right, containing antimicrobials that inhibit the growth of organisms other than N. gonorrhoeae , shows no overgrowth, but is positive for N. gonorrhoeae bacteria.
