Labset Five Worksheet 1. List five environments where you are likely to find microbial growth: Lakes‚ soil‚ oceans‚ tundras‚ deserts 2. How do microbes contribute to soil fertility? The decomposition that microbes take part in help release mineral nutrients‚ such as potassium and nitrogen‚ from dead organic matter and allowing primary producers the nutritional access. They also produce CO2 and CH4 to release into the soil and atmosphere. 3. Describe the growth you observed in each of your

TRIPLE SUGAR-IRON AGAR TEST Triple sugar-iron (TSI) agar test- designed to differentiate among the different groups or genera of the Enterobacteriaceae‚ which are all gram-negative bacilli capable of fermenting glucose with the production of acid a. Differentiation is made on the basis of differences in carbohydrate fermentation patterns and hydrogen sulfide production. To facilitate observation of carbohydrate utilization patterns- TSI agar slants contain lactose and sucrose (1%) concentrations
