Introduction: Microbes‚ also called microorganisms‚ are minutes living things that individually are usually too small to be seen with the unaided eye. The group includes bacteria‚ fungi (yeast and molds)‚ protozoa and microscopic algae. It also includes viruses‚ those noncellular entities sometimes regarded as straddling the border between life and nonlife. People tend to related these microbes only with major disease such as AIDS‚ uncomfortable infections‚ or such common inconveniences as spoiled

Based on the purpose of this lab is to demonstrate the motor learning and control known as bilateral transfer. This lab showed that through practice with reciprocal exchange‚ non-dominant hand execution can be enhanced by practice in every trial. Here are the two reasons that explain the bilateral transfer demonstrated in this lab demonstrated and improved by each trial. One is motor control‚ Motor control must do with the electrical boost that is utilized while honing an ability extra minutes. The

and observe the concept of Heat Transfer‚ by measuring the temperature distribution for steady state conduction of energy through a specific efficient unit. • Understand the Fourier Law of heat conduction and the usage of its equation in determining the rate of heat flow via solid materials. II. Theory : The Fourier Rate Equation: When a plane section of ∆x and a constant area A maintains a temperature difference ∆T‚ then the heat transfer rate per unit time by conduction

UNSTEADY STATE HEAT TRANSFER Heat transfer processes are prominent in engineering due to several applications in industry and environment. Heat transfer is central to the performance of propulsion systems‚ design of conventional space and water heating systems‚ cooling of electronic equipment‚ and many manufacturing processes (Campos 3). Unsteady state conduction is the class of heat transfer in which the temperature of the conducting medium varies with time and position. This occurs frequently in

would be an experiment that suggests that E. coli is not only becoming resistant to ampicillin‚ but also other antibiotics including Cotrimoxazole and Cefuroxime (Renal & Urology News‚ 2007). This experiment is meant to prove that through genetic transfer using plasmid DNA‚ the E. coli can become bioluminescent and immune to the ampicillin. By adding plasmid DNA to the E. coli cells‚ the genetic composition of the cells will be different. I predict that the E. coli cells containing no ampicillin will

ASEPTIC TECHNIQUES AND SOURCES OF MICROBIAL CONTAMINATION. Introduction The spread of infections has come to a point where it has become catastrophic. Aseptic technique is the method used to prevent contamination of infections. It is widely used in hospitals‚ pharmacy‚ and pharmaceutical industries and in laboratories. Different establishments have come up with more ways to improve infection control. In hospitals health care acquired infections are costing the NHS £1 Billion a year and

or other microorganisms that could cause disease. Aseptic techniques refer to a set of skills that are used to ensure any environment being examined or dressed remains free from micro-organisms by not directly touching the wound or any other surface that might come into contact with the wound (McFerran and Martin 2008). Sterilization techniques and effective hand washing technique also play a major role in maintaining aseptic conditions. Aseptic techniques may be adopted in a number of environments
