turn pink PEA prevents gram negatives from growing (2) PEA prevents the growth of Gram-negative organisms by disrupting the structure of lipids in the Gram-negative membrane. It also can hamper protein synthesis. Hemolysis is displayed on blood agar plates (2) On the plate the bacteria produces enzymes called hemolysins these enzymes lyse the red blood cells to certain degrees. Bacteria the fully lyse the blood go through beta-hemolysis. Bacteria that partially lyse the blood go through alpha-hemolysis

behaviors of different cellular slime molds were analyzed under different conditions. They found that in D. disciodeum thrived equally on nutrient soil and a non-nutrient agar dishes (Bonner & Lamont‚ 2005). Similarly to the experiment preformed by Bonner and Lamont‚ we evaluated growth patterns of D. disciodeum on non-nutrient agar dishes. Another study conducted by Fisher‚ found that certain genetic factors increase the movement and development of D. disciodeum amoebae within a temperature gradient

allows the GFP gene to be expressed‚ but in both cases bacteria colonies would be present because of the gene of resistance to the antibiotic‚ ampicillin). We essentially made the required transformed solutions--and the controls--swiped them on the agar plate‚ and then observed to see whether or not bacteria colonies grew and whether or not they glowed. Our data fully supported our hypothesis. We can thus conclude that bacteria can take in foreign DNA through the process of transformation and that

Different Molar Mass on the Diffusion on Substances Lunar-maius A. Gaerlan Group 2 Sec. X – 9l August 15‚ 2012 ABSTRACT The effect of molecular weight on the rate of diffusion was assessed using agar-water gel test. The agar-water gel set up was composed of a petri dish of agar-water gel containing three wells. Drops of potassium permanganate (KMnO4)‚ potassium dichromate (K2Cr2O7) and methylene blue(C16H18N3SCl) were simultaneously introduced to each well. Methylene blue‚ having the

The solutions were placed in agar containing Micrococcus Luteus and we observed the amount of bacteria that was lyzed around them. The measurements were taken by observing where the agar cleared around the solutions‚ as the agar was cloudy where bacteria was present. I hypothesized that saliva would

The first test conducted on unknown bacteria 32 was the Gram stain. From this stain‚ unknown 32 was found to be a Gram-positive cocci. This test eliminated all possible Gram-negative bacteria‚ Gram-positive rods and Gram-positive spirillium. Next‚ the endospore test determined whether or not the Gram-positive bacteria contained endospores. With the use of malachite green‚ steam‚ and safranin it was found that unknown bacteria 32 did not contain endospores. This eliminated Gram-positive cocci Sporosarcina

Identification of Unknown # 15 Abstract. One of the most fundamental differential staining techniques used in the study of bacteriology is gram staining. There are two main types of bacteria‚ gram negative and gram-positive. The purpose of this experiment was to perform a variety of tests to identify the bacteria contained in the unknown sample labeled number 15. The following are the tests that were used to identify the two different bacteria. The
