Case Study Luke Tudor 09 Dec 2009 Microbiology‚ Vectors and Control DMS1515 Concerns have been raised about the safety of drinking water being provided for a large temporary community. The area is remote‚ rural‚ without proper sanitation and there are limited multipurpose water resources How could you ascertain the safety of the water? Potable water is fit for consumption by humans and other animals. Water may be naturally potable‚ as is the case with pristine

Droplets containing the B. pertussis bacteria from coughing and sneezing are the main source of infection in young children and infants. The main infection transmission source are their asymptomatic parents or siblings. (Rittle‚ 2010) Adolescents and adults‚ with whom immunity diminishes‚ leads to an increased number of these individuals contracting the whooping cough. The most vulnerable groups are infants and

become a Microbiologist. Microbiologists investigate the growth and characteristics of microscopic organisms such as bacteria‚ algae‚ or fungi. Medical microbiology is perhaps the most well-known because it deals with the roles that microbes have in human illness. Other types include veterinary microbiology‚ environmental microbiology‚ and food microbiology. All these deal with the way microbes or microorganisms affect animals‚ the environment‚ and the food supply. Parasites kill people every day and are

rate similar to health care personnel. Microbiology students at the commencement of microbiology studies would be expected to have a carriage rate similar to the general population‚ therefore worth investigating whether there is evidence that the carriage rate of microbiology students is similar to hospital or age care personnel. (MLTM) The aim of this study is to determine the carriage rate of Staphylococcus aureus in the nares of second year microbiology students at RMIT University. Materials

To do this‚ following instructions on page 104 in the Microbiology Lab Manual‚ molten agarose was poured into a casting tray where it remained for solidification. Once solidified‚ 300 ml of a buffer was added‚ this is so the electrical field has something to pass through. Next‚ each person pipetted 5 microliters

Laboratory Scientists work in all areas of the clinical laboratory including blood banking‚ chemistry‚ hematology‚ immunology‚ histology and microbiology. They perform a full range of laboratory tests – from simple prenatal blood tests‚ to more complex tests to uncover diseases such as HIV/AIDS‚ diabetes‚ and cancer. They are also responsible for confirming the accuracy of test results‚ and reporting

Abstract: The focus of this experiment was to identify unknown bacteria provided. The identification of unknown bacteria is beneficial in many aspects of the research of microorganisms and also aids physicians to treat patients correctly. Various tests were performed to provide the fermentation abilities‚ presence of particular enzymes‚ and biochemical reactions. Qualitative observations were made on the tests in identification process. The data from experimentation provided sufficient results

Unknown Microorganism: #5 Report Callie Schalk Microbiology Professor Quave November 24‚ 2015 The unknown microorganism #5 is Pseudomonas aeruginosa. It can survive in a variety of environments and at temperatures found in clinical settings (Murray et al‚ 1999). Clinical setting is referring to temperatures such as those in the hospital environment. P. aeruginosa can also survive in aqueous environments. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is found at several different sources. Nosocomial
