The identification of an unknown bacterial environmental isolate through a series of morphological‚ physiological and differential exercises. The purpose of the environmental isolate report is to learn what is necessary in order to take an unknown environmental isolate (EI) and identify it. This was achieved through a series of exercises that provided information on the morphological‚ physiological and biochemical traits of the EI which were then compiled and interpreted in order to make a presumptive

Transformation Lab Report Introduction Transformation is the transfers of virulence from one cell to another‚ through the transferring of genetic material. It was originally postulated in 1928 through the works of Federick Griffith‚ a British microbiologist. Griffith observed that the mutant form‚ non-virulent form‚ of the bacteria Streptococcus Pnumoniae could be transformed into the normal‚ virulent form‚ when injected into mice along with heat killed normal forms. He concluded that somehow

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
