Clinical Microbiology Milena Ivakovic Western Governors University Bacterial Morphology Task 11 Clinical Microbiology A: In wet mount stain‚ color of the slide is same gray‚ colorless and glossy. Liquid or fluid appearance is visible. Bacteria and background don’t have a much of difference in color. Although‚ bacteria are defined and visible noted. Most of the time they are single round cells. In direct stain with crystal violet‚ again background is colorless and glossy. Bacteria is blue and some

acid and a strong base‚ there is mostly HA in the solution with small amounts of H30+ and A- because only a small amount of base has been added therefore a small amount of ionization has occurred. As we added more base‚ more HA is ionized and more salt formation occurs meaning the concentration of HA will decrease while the concentration of A- will increase. The pH rises above the equivalence point because we are adding base to a solution with a relatively large volume. At the end of the titration

Recovery is plotted as a function of salt concentration (y axis) and buffer ionic strength (BIS; x axis‚ running from 0.05 to 0.30 M) at three different pH values for the two salt types. Experimental data points are shown as black dots. Firstly‚ the small 300 microliter predictor columns often give higher recoveries than the Tricorn columns‚ with the minimum value of 66% recovery‚ even giving good recoveries using smaller salt concentrations and buffer ionic strength‚ which Tricorn

[Name] [Teacher] [Course] [Date] Catalase Lab Report An enzyme is something that helps to speed up a chemical reaction. The enzyme changes from reaction to reaction‚ but it always has the same impact. However‚ certain variables may cause the enzyme to have a more or less significant impact on the speed of each reaction. One of these variables that changes the effectiveness of an enzyme is temperature. There is an optimal functioning temperature for each enzyme in each reaction‚ depending on

Anxiety Lab Report Abstract: The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between cognitive anxiety‚ somatic anxiety and self confidence in two different situations; non-stressful and stressful. It is to examine the effects on anxiety of a simple golf putting task. The stressor used in this experiment can be described as situational‚ namely the stressor of social comparison‚ the type of stressor that leads many performers to question their own ability which in turn evokes symptoms

Formal Lab Report #1 I. Basics Title of the Experiment: The Empirical Formula of an Oxide Authors: Section Number: Chemistry Location and Date II. Abstract The aim in this lab was to determine the empirical formula of an oxide of magnesium through combustion in air. This was achieved by heating an established mass of magnesium in air inside of a crucible‚ ultimately attaining a compound that contained Mg and O. The major result of the experiment was the empirical formula of the oxide of magnesium

Economic growth The effect of corruption on economic growth has been extensively researched in the last two decades. While not denying that corruption may have played a positive role at particular times in specific countries‚ it leads to lower growth‚ hampering both private and productive government spending in investments and inhibiting the efficiency of public services. Corruption can also affect the growth rate through distortions in tax collection‚ the level of public expenditure and the composition

The different methods of measuring acids and bases in a solution By Starsky Intro to Biology September 26‚ 2011 Lab Partners: Kristen‚ Tania and Betty Introduction When using different methods to measure pH levels there are some tools that can be useful. Some more than others but by putting into action the different methods it may determine which tools will work best and give the best

This lab experiment investigates the effect of listening to different types of music on one’s pulse. The experiment relates the circulatory system to the pulse as it measures how quickly the heart contracts and releases blood. Pulse is measured in beats per minute (bpm). One’s pulse is loudest near the heart‚ because there is more pressure closer to the heart. In contrast‚ one’s pulse is quieter the further away it is measured from the heart‚ because there is less pressure the further the distance

investigated the effect different salt concentrations have on the enzyme activity. Serial dilutions were performed to prepare a lactase solution as well as twenty percent‚ fifteen percent‚ and five percent concentrations of NaCl. Three different treatments of ortho-nitro-phenyl-galactoside‚ lactase‚ and perspective salt concentrations were prepared in cuvettes where the reaction would be observed and recorded from a spectrophotometer. Larger concentrations of salt adversely effect the reaction activity
