Viruses can infect all types of cells including plant‚ animal‚ protozoa‚ fungi‚ and bacteria. Virus composition is unique and does not resemble a living cell because they only contain the necessary parts to enter and leave an infected cell. A virus is a minute parasite (10 to 100 times smaller than bacteria) that is unable to reproduce by itself; however‚ once it infects a vulnerable cell a virus can make the cell’s inner workings produce viruses on its behalf. Viruses typically have either RNA

Andon Kiryazov December 14th‚ 2011 Final paper The novels of Alexander Dumas are favorites of many generations of readers because of his fascinating characters‚ tangled stories and dynamic plots. One of them‚ “The Count of Monte Cristo” was finished in 1844. Given its brilliant storyline about love and revenge in the 18th century‚ the novel was brought to life for the first time in 1934 by director Rowland V Lee and skillful actors Robert Donat‚ Elissa Landi and Sidney Blackmer. However‚ would

I used E. coli to make a heat fix smear. I placed a drop of water in middle of the slide‚ then put in small amount of E. coli and mixed well. The slide was allowed to air dry. When it was completely dry‚ I passed the slide over the flame for 3 times to fix the cells to the slide. For the staining part‚ I put a drop of methylene blue onto the smear for 30 second‚ rinsed with water‚ blotted dry and observed the slide using oil immersion. Gram Stain For comparison purpose‚ I used two

Microbiology‚ 2002. vol.3. Temperature and bacteria The lowest temperature at which a particular species will grow is the minimum growth temperature‚ while the maximum growth temperature is the highest temperature at which they will grow. The temperature at which their growth is optimal is called the optimum growth temperature. In general‚ the maximum and minimum growth temperatures of any particular type of bacteria are about 30°F (-1°C) apart. Most bacteria thrive at temperatures at or around that

Abstract: Bacteria consists of a large domain of prokaryotic microorganism in which can fight of antibiotics allowing the bacteria to become antibiotic resistant. In this lab report‚ we discover the most effective disinfectant that would work best in killing the harmful bacterial strain‚ Bacillus subtilis. KB testing or disc diffusion antibiotic sensitivity testing is measured through the diameter in millimeters to find how resistant the antibiotic to the bacteria. The hypothesis of Windex fell correctly

Lecture 14 Lecture Gene Complementation in Bacteria In order to perform tests for dominance or for complementation in bacteria we need a way to make the bacteria diploid for part of the chromosome. To do this we need to consider a different extrachromosomal element: Ori T The F plasmid (length 105 base pairs) Tra genes There are some special terms to describe the state of F in a cell: F– refers to a strain without any form of F‚ whereas F+ refers to a strain with an F plasmid.
