Fig. 57:1. Colonies of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae, strain CCUG 12837, cultiured for detection of satelitism on a horse blood agar plate with Staphylococcus aureus, strain CCUG 4151, streaked in the shape of a cross on a carpet of the bacterium to be investigated. The agar plate has been incubated during 24 h at 37°C. Note the streak of S. aureus in the upper part of the image. The total length of the scale bar is equivalent to 5 mm.
