Identifying Unknown Bacteria Using Biochemical and Molecular Methods Beginning of Instructor Pages Instructor Pages - - 3 Purpose The purpose of this lab is to introduce a variety of lab techniques to students working on the common problem of identifying an unknown bacterium. This lab helps students develop an understanding of the biochemical and molecular differences in bacteria and introduces the concept of identifying species based on characeristic gene sequences. Students work through

"The Equal Pay Act of 1963 was passed to prohibit wage discrimination on the basis of sex and sought to ensure that women earn equal pay for equal work. Its purpose was clear: Eliminate the gender wage gap‚ which hurts women and families. But 50 years later‚ pay discrimination is alive and well. Gag rules that require employees to keep their pay secret perpetuate this inequity." (www.cnn.com) I as a women have personally experienced this in the workforce; where male workers are paid a higher salary

discussed about the employee turnover. The PQR Company want to improve their existing succession planning system because their best and brightest employees are leaving the company so the PQR Company were having problems with retention. They want to retain their talent employee’s trough improving their existing succession planning. The PQR Company can follow some suggestion that their staffing‚ training‚ and succession planning report up trough a new position- a new head of talent management to improve

Observing Bacteria Kelli Jo Simco Microbiology Due: 2/8/13 Abstract: Microscopes are fragile instruments that must be handle with extreme caution as they can produce high quality results when observing the smallest specimens on earth. A microscope must be properly cleaned before use and storage. The different objectives allow for a range of observations. At the highest objectives‚ the resolution can easily be lost which is why the oil immersion lens is used to minimize refraction. While

Bacteria and Archaea The Archaea are presently recognized as one of the two main domains of prokaryotes. The majority of genes that indicate Archaea to be different from Bacteria are for information transfer processes such as DNA replication‚ transcription and translation. Of these‚ DNA replication machinery appears to be most different between the two domains. In terms of transcription‚ the core subunits of the RNA polymerase are the same in Bacteria and Archaea‚ but archaea also contains several

CHAPTER TWO Beneficial bacteria in the environment and their uses. In today’s world‚ the environment and its related issues are steadily gaining a lot of importance. Some bacteria are helpful and are used to obtain balance in the environment. It has been seen that helpful bacteria are useful in dissolving organic sludge from water‚ breaking down the growth of algae‚ reducing the various noxious odours such as hydrogen sulfide odours‚ reducing ammonia levels‚ promoting faster growth of fish in the

Ecological Footprint 9 F Ecological Footprint What is an Ecological Footprint? An ecological footprint is the measurement system that helps us calculate the human pressure(the human demand) on Earth ’s ecosystems.It calculates what percentage and part of the world we use individually or in groups. Ecological footprint is calculated by looking over all of the biological products/materials consumed and all of the biological waste produced‚by a person during a specific year.All of these

Microorganisms can be prokaryotic—the bacteria or eukaryotic—the algae‚ protozoa or fungi. While viruses are acellular they are also studied in the scope of microbiology because they are small and because they infect cells. While most bacterial are unicellular they can also exist in colonial or multicellular forms. In this laboratory exercise you will examine the ubiquity and diversity of various microbes that are present in the environment or inhabit the human body. Most bacteria that inhabit the body are
