conjunctivitis can occur in one or two of a person’s eyes. It tends to cause a watery discharge while conjunctivitis caused by bacteria causes a thicker discharge. Both are transmitted to another eye in the discharge. Children are primarily affected by bacterial conjunctivitis‚ possibly because it is more transferable in a location like school. People are at a higher risk of developing conjunctivitis if they use contacts. Those who come in

Alyse Rose Microbiology Lab Bacterial Unknown March 25‚ 2013 Bacterial Unknown Report Each student was given an unknown bacteria to figure out. I was given the unknown bacteria S38. Everybody is supposed to do all sorts of test to identify the bacteria. The first thing I did was smear my bacteria on a liquid medium. I then proceeded to incubate the medium for 24-48 hours. 1. GRAM STAIN The next step I took in finding my unknown bacteria was to gram stain it. This is used to differentiate

inhibits synthesis of bacterial cell wall‚ causing cell death. It is the best beta-lactam for IM administration; has poor capacity to cross blood-brain barrier and thus is not used for treatment of meningitis Cephalosporins exert bactericidal activity by interfering with bacterial cell wall synthesis and inhibiting cross-linking of the peptidoglycan. The cephalosporins are also thought to play a role in the activation of bacterial cell autolysins which may contribute to bacterial cell lysis Onset/peak

Transformation of Bacterial Cells with Plasmid DNA Introduction: Transformation refers to the process in which the cell integrates foreign DNA to its genetic code‚ meaning it takes the genes and incorporates them into the cell’s current DNA. Cells that can do this naturally‚ most commonly bacteria and archea‚ are known as competent. The bacteria E. coli do not have high transformation competence under normal conditions‚ but can be manipulated to produce better results using

THE CHILD’S LEARNING OF ENGLISH MORPHOLOGY JEAN BERKO In this study1 we set out to discover what is learned by children exposed to English morphology. To test for knowledge of morphological rules‚ we use nonsense materials. We know that if the subject can supply the correct plural ending‚ for instance‚ to a noun we have made up‚ he has internalized a working system of the plural allomorphs in English‚ and is able to generalize to new cases and select the right form. If a child knows that the

Bacterial biosensors for victual processing The biosensor research has blossomed into a mature and highly active field over the past 20 years‚ mutually in the laboratory and in the business-related district‚ attract huge attention due to the pledge of holdings for vital aspects of the human life. The wished-for work aims to engineer a capacitive biosensor‚ which will be able to perform label-free and fast electrochemically immune-detection based on very small biological samples. This

the elodea cell. * What is the typical size difference between animal cells and bacterial cells? One of the main difference between an animal cell and a bacterial cell is a bacterial cell contains a plasmid‚ a ring of DNA‚ opposed to the chromosomes that animals possess. There are a few other differences‚ such as size and whether or not they contain membrane bound organelles‚ which bacteria do not. Bacterial cells are much smaller than animal cells. PART B Lab Questions: This procedure is used

By: Milton Antwi THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE TWO MAIN TYPES OF BACTERIAL SPECIES The core difference between a gram positive bacteria and gram negative bacteria is the differences in cell wall composition. Prokaryotes known as eubacteria have three basic forms: rods‚ cocci and spiral. The bacterial cell wall is the single most important contributor to cell shape. In addition to shape of cell wall‚ presence or absence of flagellum‚ and if present‚ positions of flagellum‚ the eubacteria

Unknown reports in microbiology are written in scientific format. Scientific writing is written differently from other types of writing. The results of the exercise or experiment are what are being showcased‚ not the writing. The purpose of scientific writing is not to entertain‚ but to inform. The writing should be simple and easy to understand. There is a specific style that must be followed when writing scientific reports. Scientific writing is typically written in the passive voice. The

Gram Negative Unknown Lab Report Abstract The Unknown Gram Negative bacterium inoculated in a Tryptic Soy broth medium was randomly selected from a group of other unknowns. In order to identify this unknown the seven different types of biochemical tests will be conducted on this unknown bacterium to identify it out of 6 possible bacteria; Escherichia coli(E. coli)‚ Enterobacter aerogenes (E.aerogenes)‚ Klebsiella pneumoniae (K.pneumoniae)‚ Proteus mirabilis(P.miranilis)‚ Pseudomonas aeruginosa(P
