REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE This investigatory project aims to make use of rambutan peeling extracts that is high in phenolic compounds such as tannin and saponin that exhibits antioxidant activity and antibacterial activity against pathogenic bacteria. Although the seeds contain such compounds the peeling exhibit greater amount of the said compounds. Rambutan is a very popular fruit cultivated in the Philippines and it is eaten in large amounts. The rambutans rind is quickly discarded and

There are only two microorganisms‚ one is Gram positive and one is Gram negative‚ inside the test tube. The Gram positive possibilities are to be narrowed down from Bacillus cereus‚ Clostridium perfringens‚ Corynebacterium xerosis‚ Enterococcus faecalis‚ Streptococcus agalactaie‚ Staphylococcus aureus‚ and

Contamination of processed seafood might occur from the plant equipment at different stages of processing. Several bacterial species identified from plant equipment include Pseudomonas‚ Neisseriaceae‚ Enterobacteriaceae‚ Coryneforms‚ Acinetobacter‚ Alcaligenes‚ Psychrobacter‚ Staphylococcus‚ lactic acid bacteria and yeasts (ICMSF‚ 2005). Good sanitation practices in the processing plant prevent seafood products from becoming contaminated during raw processing‚ and rapid freezing retards

Systematic Identification of Bacillus subtilis and Serratia marcescens Through a Battery of Tests and Plates Introduction: The purpose of this experiment was to use a systematic battery of tube tests and plates designed to lead to identification of two unknown bacterial species‚ from the combination of all results. A sample of bacteria was used‚ labeled “Sample 4”‚ from which both species was to be obtained‚ one gram positive and one gram negative. Table 1 is a list of the possible bacteria to

The purpose of this experiment was to create a new plasmid (pMV158GFP)‚ which lacks the malR protein and is mobile and has the GFP gene to be used to track the flow of genes between bacterial cells through conjugation. A plasmid with these qualities is necessary to create a plasmid that can be transferred to Gram-positive bacteria low in C&G (which are hard to transform with traditional means) by conjugation with other bacteria. Current vectors have the malR regulatory protein which imposes a problem

The main bacteria involved are Lactobaccillus fermentum‚ L. buchneri‚ Streptococcus lactis‚ S faecalis. METHOD OF PREPARATION Typical jalebi is made with a type of wheat flour called maida flour. This is fine ground flour which can be substituted with pastry flour in the US. Saffron is key to preparing jalebi to get the yellow or orange color of

Unknown Experiment Introduction: The purpose of this experiment is to distinguish and indentify an unknown bacterium. There are several tests that can help one eliminate and narrow down the options. The most useful test‚ and the very first one done‚ is a gram stain. This test will tell whether the bacterium is gram-positive or gram-negative. After the type of gram stain is identified‚ the tester has a wide array of differentiating tests at their disposal. Based on the results from these

Coccus is a term used to describe a type of morphology that helps us distinguish different kinds of bacteria. The cell’s morphology is only one of the many ways we can differentiate the different species. Looking at these bacterium underneath the microscope is an important step to determine which kind of species it is. All cocci bacteria are not gram positive‚ but this lab will examine only this kind because of their influence in human health. Staphylococcus Aureus is a gram-positive coccus bacterium

Livja Koka Anaerobic Bacteria In this experiment the purpose is to seek understanding between an organism and its use of oxygen. Oxygen is a very important part of the organisms’ survival. Oxygen has a tendency to form very reactive by-products inside a cell. These by-products create havoc by reacting with protein and DNA‚ thus inactivating them. Cells that are able to live in the presence of oxygen have evolved enzymes to cope with H2O2 and O2- and thus are not inhibited by O2. Also many anaerobes
