Solution

The correct option is C R. Koch
A pure culture is a laboratory culture containing a single species of microorganisms. A pure culture was usually derived from a mixed culture (culture containing many species of organisms) by transferring a small sample into a new, sterile growth medium. Robert Koch developed solid culture media and the methods for obtaining pure cultures of bacteria.
So, the correct answer is 'R. Koch'.
