    Citrate Test: Some bacteria can use citrate as a source of carbon. To test if the unknown bacteria uses citrate as a source of carbon‚ Simmon’s citrate agar was used as the medium on which the bacteria was grown. The Simmon’s citrate agar consists of sodium citrate as the source of carbon‚ ammonium dihydrogen phosphate as the source of nitrogen along with pH indicator such as bromothymol blue. Procedure: The Citratase activity was detected by inoculating the unknown bacteria on the slant surface

    university‚ I cultivate bacteria and observe what harms or benefits the different species are. For years‚ I focused my research on society’s effect on bacteria’s natural development. The issue I bring to you today demands a shift in perception of bacteria and antibiotics‚ a paradigm shift. We need to change the way we focus our attention on these topics. These points will allow us to develop an idea of how to take a stand sociologically in the war against resistant bacteria. Society idolizes antibacterial

    Bonnie Bassler claims that bacteria although simple have complex systems that they use to communicate with each other to coordinate. This is crucial to humans because Dr. Bassler considers humans to be 90-99% bacterial. Dr. Bassler states we have about one trillion human cells but we have about 10 trillion bacterial cells that either live in or on humans. The number of bacterial genes in those cells outnumber humans by 100 times since humans only have 30‚000 genes. These bacteria share a mutualistic relationship
