I am using mixed culture of LAB and Yeast for cereal fermentation.For enumeration of each bacterium in a mixed culture, I need to add anilin blue to the MRS medium but I didn't found how the different strains will looks like on a plate.
Carry out plate culture separately with each organism in your medium of choise and establish your visual scale of differentiation of the 2 organisms, from the colony characteristics of each species, as colony colour, shape, size, appearance, smoothness/roughness, roconcaved/convexed etc. Good luck
The media uses for lactic acid mix depended on used isolates. Anilin blue with MRS medium is not selective 100%. you can used other media while The yeast enumeration was used Chloramphenicol glucose yeast extract agar
