Many types of projects are possible when you are able to count bacteria. For example‚ you could count the bacteria in drinking water‚ fresh milk‚ old milk that is slightly sour‚ buttermilk‚ yogurt‚ mud puddle‚ lemonade‚ and many other things. Or you may want to know how fast Chlorox kills bacteria. If you add some Chlorox to a culture and count the surviving bacteria at suitable intervals you can plot killing the killing curve and determine whether the killing is single hit or higher order. It will

Anaerobic respiration in Bacteria Like humans and other animals‚ bacteria need to breathe. Anaerobic bacteria basically mean bacteria that respire anaerobically. All living cells need to respire in order to release energy for vital cell activities. Anaerobic respiration is respiration in the absence of oxygen‚ hence anaerobic bacteria does not breathe at all. The purpose of respiration is to provide the cell with the appropriate molecules for creating energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate

30 February 2014 Antibiotic Resistant Bacteria: What is it‚ how to prevent it and who it affects? In the United States alone‚ about 23‚000 people die from antibiotic resistant infections yearly. It is also one of the top 15 most dangerous illnesses in the country (United States House of Representatives). Antibiotic resistance is when bacteria develops a different response to an antibiotic that is its ancestor bacteria. Slight changes in bacteria enable the antibiotic to work and successfully

Question: Suppose a meteor impact blows some extremophile bacteria from the Earth into the depths of a gas giant planet called planet X ‚ where they evolve into an intelligent species which practises physics. Do you think their physical theories would be similar to ours‚ and if so in what ways would they be likely to be similar? Your answer will necessarily involve some speculation‚ but make sure it involves some careful argument as well. Theoretical physics is one of many braches of physics that

called a differential stain since it differentiates between Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Bacteria that stain purple with the Gram-staining procedure are termed Gram-positive; those that stain pink are said to be Gram-negative. The terms positive and negative have nothing to do with electrical charge‚ but simply designate 2 distinct morphological groups of bacteria. Grampositive and Gram-negative bacteria stain differently because of fundamental differences in the structure of their cell walls

classification of bacteria is important to make easier manipulation on the bacteria for various purposes such as for medical‚ research‚ developmental‚ and biotechnicalfieldsThe cell wall is the basis for classification of bacteria according to the Gram stain. Accordingto the chemical make up of bacterial cell wall‚ a staining procedure‚ Gram stain‚ helps usclassify bacteria into two subgroups‚ The cell wall can stain either positive or negative‚depending on its chemistry. If the bacteria stains positive
