Unknown Microorganism: #5 Report Callie Schalk Microbiology Professor Quave November 24‚ 2015 The unknown microorganism #5 is Pseudomonas aeruginosa. It can survive in a variety of environments and at temperatures found in clinical settings (Murray et al‚ 1999). Clinical setting is referring to temperatures such as those in the hospital environment. P. aeruginosa can also survive in aqueous environments. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is found at several different sources. Nosocomial

consist of a cultivation medium‚ such as grains‚ seeds‚ or nutrient liquids that have been well colonized by the microorganisms used for the fermentation. These starters are formed using a specific cultivation medium and a specific mix of fungal and bacterial strains. microorganisms used in starters include various bacteria and fungi (yeasts and molds): Rhizopus‚ Aspergillus‚ Mucor‚ Amylomyces‚ Endomycopsis‚ Saccharomyces‚ Hansenula anomala‚ Lactobacillus‚ Acetobacter‚ etc. Tempe is a traditional food

TITLE Lab #4 Soil –vs- Water Microbiology INTRODUCTION There are 4 learning goals for this lab: 1. Collect samples and compile data from at least 2 sources (soil; water) of your choice. 2. Identify at least 2 Prokaryotes (bacteria) and 2 Eukaryotes (fungus) in your samples. 3. Research the importance of bacteria and fungus to Earth in a non-medical context. 4. Compile a high-quality‚ 3+ resource (excluding the lab worksheet)‚ MLA-cited in-text laboratory report using the scientific method

Contributors to Microbiology Pioneers of Microbiology I. Antonie van Leeuwenhoek (Oct. 24‚ 1632- Aug. 30‚ 1723) A. In 1676 Leeuwenhoek saw tiny organisms in water‚ he was the first man to observe and describe bacteria accurately. He discovered microscopic nematodes‚ blood cells and sperm. He also made over 500 microscopes to view specific objects. B. Microbiology is concerned with the study of all forms of life that are too small to be seen with the naked eye. Antonie’s work

Microbiology is the study of microorganisms which must be viewed with the aid of a microscope or electron microscope. The importance of microbiology includes: used in biomedical research‚ creation of medicines‚ environmental applications and new research tools. Disease causing organisms include: protists‚ bacteria‚ viruses and other microorganisms. Bacteria are important for fixing N2 in a usable form for plants. Bacteria and some fungi are important in decomposition and recycling

Fighting Bacterial Growth The purpose of this lab was to determine the effectiveness of antiseptics‚ disinfectants‚ and antibiotics on bacteria. The hypothesis was that if bleach was used‚ it would be the most effective because bleach is commonly used to clean and disinfect various things. The variables that were tested were antibacterial soap and Scope mouthwash for the antiseptics; bleach and ammonia for the disinfectant; and Cipro‚ erythromycin‚ and tetracycline for the antibiotics. All of these

bacteria is well known. In contaminated environments‚ presence of metal resistant genes on plasmids often provide the other bacteria within the same niche to acquire the necessary genes at times of severe (metal) stress. Several arsenic (As) resistant bacterial strains were isolated from contaminated groundwater samples collected from Chakdah and Barasat districts of West Bengal and Jorhat district of Assam. All the isolated bacteria were identified by 16S rRNA gene sequencing. The phylogenetic analysis
