POLYMER SYNTHESIS AND PROPERTIES AIM: The aim of the experiment was to prepare three different polymers‚ namely nylon 66‚ Agar Gel and slime‚ being able to differentiate between the configuration and analysis among the three structures‚ noting the physical characteristics of each polymer and the chemical reactions that occur during the formation of the polymer. Pre- lab questions 1. Is Nylon 66 a step or chain – growth polymer? Define both types of polymerization in your answer. Nylon 66

aeruginosa was gram-positive and therefore it would be susceptible. That was my hypothesis.We divided antiseptic agar plate into quadrants and divided antibiotics agar plate into six areas. We wrote the organisms’ name‚ date‚ and the temperature on the bottom of the agar plates. For antiseptic‚ our group used one color code for each quadrant. We streaked the swab in three directions on the agar plate and used sterilize forceps to remove filter paper discs from the container‚ and dipped it into solution

(Pearson’s 2011). Mannitol Salt Agar The Mannitol Salt Agar test was used to test only the Unknown Gram-positive bacteria. One colony from the Unknown 13A plate was used to inoculate the Mannitol Salt Agar Plate. After the plate was inoculated‚ it was placed in an incubator at 35ºC for 48 hours. If the agar surrounding the culture changed from red to yellow the test was positive‚ which indicated that the bacterium was capable of fermenting mannitol (Pearson’s 2011). If the agar surrounding the culture did
