1- Photochromogens produce yellow pigment only in the presence of light. 2- Photochromogens can not produce pigment in the darkness. 3- The left tube is not considered photochromogen. 4- The medium used here is Lowenstein Jensen medium Zagazing University Fac. Of Vet. Med. Dep. Of Microbiology
1- In the left part , the medium used is Dorset egg medium. 2- In the left part , the M.O produce yellow pigment. 3- In the left part , the right tube is considered +ve. 4- Yellow colour in the right tube is due to pigment production. www.zutalaba.com
