Unknown Bacteria Lab Report Introduction The purpose to this lab was to identify an unknown bacteria from a mixed culture provided to us by our instructor. This study was done by applying all of the methods that have been instructed on thus far in microbiology laboratory class. Each test performed‚ provided us with some key information about the unknown organism in question and how the bacteria function. Over a two week period‚ eight prepared types of test media were provided to identify

Aims The purpose of the two experiments was to determine the fundamental effects that temperature has on the growth and survival of bacteria. During the first experiment five different bacterial broth cultures of Escherichia coli‚ Pseudomonas fluorescens‚ Enterococcus faecalis‚ Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus stearothermophilus were individually incubated at temperatures of 5‚ 25‚ 37‚ 45 and 55°C for one week in an aim to distinguish the effect temperature has on growth and survival of the five different

The hypothesis was rejected in this experiment‚ based on the results. The results were much different than hypothesized before the experiment. It was hypothesized that the lower concentrations of CLR‚ Jar E and Jar D‚ would be healthier and more likely to reproduce than the higher concentrations of CLR‚ Jar B and C. However‚ as shown in the actual results‚ Jar E and D with the lower concentrations of CLR died quicker than Jar B and C. The CLR and water solutions acted as a fertilizer‚ so the greater

pathogen is a tiny non-visible disease causing microorganism such as Bacteria‚ Virus and Fungus. Both the scientific name and common name for Actinomycosis is Actinomycosis. The pathogens that cause Actinomycosis are from a species of Actinomyces‚ most commonly known as Actinomyces Israelii and Actinomyces Gerencseriae. The species of Actinomyces are an Actinobacteria class of Bacteria. The pathogens are endogenous‚ meaning the bacteria originate from inside the body‚ making them not liable to be transmitted

Assessing Blood Pressure Anatomy of the Heart The heart is located in the thoracic cavity between the lungs within the mediastinum. It is a hollow‚ cone-shaped‚ muscular organ about the size of a fist. Functions of the Heart keeps O2-poor blood separate from O2-rich blood; keeps the blood flowing in one direction—blood flows away from and then back to the heart in each circuit; creates blood pressure‚ which moves the blood through the circuits; Regulates the blood supply based on

The Medicines Acts 1968 and various amendments cover the legal management of medication. While I as a cae assistant am not expected to have detailed knowledge of the legislation‚ I do need to be aware of the legal difference between types of drugs and the legal framework that would allow me to handle medicines on behalf of my residents.

can be lethal if consumed in high doses. The amount of ethyl alcohol that is consumed can be quantified by blood alcohol content (BAC). BAC is measured as weight per unit of volume and it is commonly written and described as a percentage. The percentage of blood alcohol content will indicate an individual’s level of intoxication. An individual can risk the possibility of death when their blood alcohol content ranges from 0.400% to 0.500%‚ or exceeds 0.500%. Qualitative and quantitative analysis of

Observing the Live Earthworm Kingdom Animalia is a diverse kingdom that contains many types of worms. The phylum Annelida includes segmented worms such as Earthworms‚ Clamworms‚ and Leeches. Earthworms play a huge role in the environment. They have two openings‚ a mouth and an anus. They feed through the mouthpharynxesophagus crop (stores food)gizzard (grinds food)intestineanus (excretion of waste). The hypothesis predicted for this lab is that Earthworms will respond differently when came in contact
