Morales‚ Marinel M. Dr. Annie Cu Gallardo BSE-Biological Sciences III-3 Microbiology (Lecture) Microbiology Written Report REPORT NO. 1 Prokaryotes: Bacteria Most of us have been conditioned to think of bacteria as invisible‚ potentially harmful little creatures. Actually‚ relatively few species of bacteria cause disease in humans‚ animals‚ plants‚ or any other organisms. In fact‚ all organisms made up of eukaryotic cells probably evolved from bacteria-like organisms‚ which were some

incubated at room temperature showed red colonies throughout its media. This identified it as the gram-negative bacteria Serratia marcescens‚ but further tests had to be conducted to fully confirm. Bacteria A showed a white opaque growth in both of its plates. Secondly both bacteria had to be gram stained‚ so that they could be identified as gram-positive or as gram-negative. The same gram staining method was used for both bacteria‚ which consisted of inoculating each bacteria into a

Joachim Gram‚ a Danish microbiologist‚ developed a method for distinguishing bacteria by their different reaction to a stain. The process of applying Gram’s stain is as follows: the bacteria are stained with a violet dye and treated with Gram’s solution (1 part iodine‚ 2 parts potassium iodide‚ and 300 parts water). Ethyl alcohol is then applied to the medium; the bacteria will either preserve the blue color of the original dye or they will obtain a red hue. The blue colored bacteria are gram-positive;

how the bacteria function. Over a two week period‚ eight prepared types of test media were provided to identify the assigned unknown mixed cultures. Not all of these tests were performed on every culture‚ as some were used only for gram positive or gram negative bacteria. The tests performed and what constituted a positive or negative test are as follows: Lab day 1; today in lab we obtained the unknown mixed culture “041”and one brain-heart infusion agar (BHIA). The first step was the

Exercise 13 MITOSIS: REPLICATION OF EUKARYOTIC CELLS ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS 1. a. Mitosis and cytokinesis are often referred to collectively as "cellular division." Why are they more accurately called cellular replication? The result of mitosis is production of two cells (replicates) identical to the parent cell. The genetic material is replicated rather than divided. b. Does the cell cycle have a beginning and an end? The organization of our study of cellular events indicates a beginning and

Observation of Bacteria on Chicken and Handrail and the Effect of GermX® and Alcohol on Them. Sujit Bhimireddy‚ Daryl Onwuchuruba‚ Naveen Sood‚ and Manasa Tripuraneni Biology 106 Abstract Bacteria are found everywhere on this planet. This experiment is aimed at observing some of the bacteria that surround us in places that we use everyday. We will look at bacteria found on a piece of chicken and bacteria found on a handrail. The effectiveness of antibacterial substances such as GermX® and

PSBPP103 Differential Gram’s staining EXPERIMENT NO. 1 AIM: THEORY: Page No: C1 Date: To Gram stain the given bacterial suspension and to differentiate between gram positive and gram negative organism. Visualization of microorganisms in the living state is very difficult‚ not just because they are minute‚ but because they are transparent and almost colorless when suspended in an aqueous medium. To study their properties and divide microorganisms into specific groups for diagnostic purposes

Observing Bacteria Kelli Jo Simco Microbiology Due: 2/8/13 Abstract: Microscopes are fragile instruments that must be handle with extreme caution as they can produce high quality results when observing the smallest specimens on earth. A microscope must be properly cleaned before use and storage. The different objectives allow for a range of observations. At the highest objectives‚ the resolution can easily be lost which is why the oil immersion lens is used to minimize refraction. While
