A method of monitoring and identifying micro-organism by measuring impedance change of a supporting medium on which micro-organism is growth. Impedance change includes decrease and increase in a peculiar pattern characteristic of micro-organism as the latter achieves growth. The supporting medium is constituted by a basal medium including hydrolyzate of protein and added with carbohydrate and salt and if necessary, aminoacid.
