HOW TO WRITE AN UNKNOWN LAB REPORT IN MICROBIOLOGY GENERAL Unknown reports in microbiology are written in scientific format. Scientific writing is written differently from other types of writing. The results of the exercise or experiment are what are being showcased‚ not the writing. The purpose of scientific writing is not to entertain‚ but to inform. The writing should be simple and easy to understand. There is a specific style that must be followed when writing scientific reports.

(Phenylalanine Deaminase)‚ Lysine Decarboxylase‚ and Ornithine Decarboxylase. Colonial morphology on EMB was used to prove the identity of the bacteria. The unknown bacteria was #9. After performing the tests it is determined that the unknown bacteria is Escherichia coli. 3. Methods: All tests were performed using the aseptic technique to assure the cultures were pure and not contamination was present. The inoculation loops and straight wire stab needles were placed over the flame of a Bunsen burner and

THE EFFECT OF INCREASING THE CONCENTRATION OF DETTOL ANTISEPTIC LIQUID ON THE GROWTH OF E.COLI Background: Escherichia coli are rod shaped‚ gram negative bacteria often found in the gut of humans and other warm-blooded mammals (Jacques & Ngo‚ 2004). It is transmitted primarily through faecal contaminated food and water. Most strains of E. coli are not harmful to humans‚ however some strains are pathogenic and can cause symptoms including diarrhoea (Unknown‚ 2012). The active ingredient in Dettol

Biology June 13‚ 2011 E. coli Levels in the Finley River and the Possible Effects on the Recreational Users. Significance: E. coli ‚ short for Escherichia coli‚ is a class of bacteria found naturally in the intestines of humans and other land dwelling animals (6). It is part of a group of bacteria known as coliform. There are hundreds of known strains of E. coli. Most are harmless. Some however‚ such as E. coli O157:H7‚ can cause severe infection which can often cause

Introduction:The objective throughout the gram staining experiment was to classify bacteria through their chemical nature as well as the physical structure of their cell walls. Through this experiment one would be able to observe either a thick or thin layer of peptidoglycan by the appearance of the bacteria staining either gram-positive blue-purple or gram-negative pink. Question: Is there a subsequent effect of the bacteria when decolorizing with alcohol? Hypothesis: If there is either a removal

qualitative tests for taxonomic identification. The culture did appear homogenous throughout the testing period and is currently retained by Northern Michigan University’s department of Microbiology. We suggest that culture 16 is an example of Escherichia coli. Background: Techniques used were in accordance with NMU Professor Dr. D. Becker’s lab manual (ISBN 0-390-53911- 2; McGraw Hill). Changes in protocol or interpretation are noted where they were implemented‚ but strict adherence to the manual

Study of Bacterial Growth and Resistance Level to Certain Antibiotics INTRODUCTION Escherichia coli—better known as E. coli—is a gram negative‚ rod shaped bacteria. It is relatively harmless‚ but can occasionally cause food poisoning. It can also provide Vitamin K2. It prevents the establishment of pathogenic bacteria‚ and is associated with or found in the intestinal organ. The antibiotic that E. coli is resistant to is Penicillin. Bacillus subtilis—better known as B. subtilis—is known as

Genetic transformation of Escherichia coli with pGLO (Adapted from: Biotechnology Explorer: Bacterial Transformation: The pGLO System. Instructors Guide. BIO-RAD). Objectives a. To understand one of the most commonly used techniques for introducing DNA into E. coli cells and its use in molecular cloning. b. To become familiar with the concept of using green fluorescent protein (GFP) as a molecular tag for studying gene expression in bacteria and other organisms.
