There are many reasons for identifying an unknown bacterium. The reasons range from medical purposes‚ such as determining if the unknown could cause ailments in living things or knowing what microorganisms are needed to make antibiotics to other purposes such as knowing the exact microorganism has to be used to make certain foods. This experiment was done by applying methods in order to identify an unknown bacterium. An unknown bacterium was handed out by the lab instructor. The methods that

What is the likely role of genetic transmission in schizophrenia? Schizophrenia has been defined as a “significant loss of contact with reality‚ often referred to as psychosis” (Butcher‚ Mineka‚ Hooley & Carson 2004 p.458). Although schizophrenia is termed as one illness‚ it is more likely that it is a combination of disorders with “a variety of etiologies‚ courses and outcomes’ (American Psychiatric Association 1997 p.49). The symptoms of the illness include hearing voices and a conviction that

learned so far in the microbiology laboratory class for the identification of unknown bacteria. The identification process can be completed with a series of deferential stains and biochemical tests. Creating a dichotomous key helps to limit the amount of biochemical tests done on an unknown organism and by observation and recording of data the unknown organism can be found. Materials and Methods The procedure for all tests performed was taken from Leboffe and Pierce’s Microbiology: Laboratory Theory
