Numerous of research has been conducted on the advantages and disadvantages of single-patient rooms in healthcare facilities. (a) Single-patient rooms can cause shorter length of stay for the patients. (b) There is a decrease in infectious bacteria in healthcare facilities with single-patient rooms. (c) Single-patient rooms may increase less disturbance from other patients‚ privacy‚ comfort and provides the patients the ability to regulate their environment. Single-patient rooms are beginning to

Pure Culture Techniques In this first lab‚ you will be learning some very fundamental and important techniques. As is the case with most things‚ shorts cuts usually get you in trouble. This is especially true in Microbiology. The techniques you will be learning tonight‚ if mastered correctly‚ will make your life and learning experience in Microbiology much easier‚ if you don’t pay attention and practice these techniques incorrectly‚ well then……? Today you will be learning the following techniques:

Introduction: Being able to identify a particular bacterial species is important. It is very useful in knowing its risk of toxicity to humans or animals‚ its resistance or susceptibility to antibiotics‚ and determining how to control its growth or kill it altogether. The purpose of these procedures is to discovery the identity of an unknown microbe by observing its reactions to a barrage of chemical and physical tests. Different microorganisms react in different ways‚ due to their function‚ digestibility
