Unknown Bacteria Lab Report Introduction The purpose to this lab was to identify an unknown bacteria from a mixed culture provided to us by our instructor. This study was done by applying all of the methods that have been instructed on thus far in microbiology laboratory class. Each test performed‚ provided us with some key information about the unknown organism in question and how the bacteria function. Over a two week period‚ eight prepared types of test media were provided to identify

Bio Lab Report Title: Gram-Negative and Gram-Positive contamination in yogurt. Introduction: There is bacteria that is beneficial and harmful in the human. Yogurt was choosed to be the best example that contains this bacteria. What happens to be the difference between these two types of bacteria‚ and how are they harmful? The bacteria is considered “Gram-Negative‚” and the substance is considered contaminated when there is more negative bacteria than positive bacteria. This will prove or disapprove

difference between a gram positive bacteria and gram negative bacteria is the differences in cell wall composition. Prokaryotes known as eubacteria have three basic forms: rods‚ cocci and spiral. The bacterial cell wall is the single most important contributor to cell shape. In addition to shape of cell wall‚ presence or absence of flagellum‚ and if present‚ positions of flagellum‚ the eubacteria can be classified according to Gram Stain. First and foremost‚ gram positive bacteria are by and

isolated as separate organisms‚ using inoculating streak technique and incubated until the next class period. The expected result was supposed to show Gram positive and Gram negative bacterium growing on a separate media. Having checked two Nutrient plates‚ signs of visible growth of two different bacterium were present. Due to the fact‚ that one type of bacteria didn’t appear to be fully

Sampling of Gram-Positive Bacteria and Antibiotic Resistance Resting We thought it would be interesting to find out the different bacteria that grow on things we use on a daily basis and the level of antibiotic resistance that those bacteria have. We chose to swab the toilet seat in the MATC women’s bathroom and the ATM machine in the commons area on campus. We were certain the ATM would be dirtier than the toilet seat since the bathrooms get cleaned every day. The first step we took in testing

need to know what gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria are and what it’s composed of. Gram-positive bacteria take up the class of bacteria that stain crystal violet in the method of bacterial differentiation. Where gram-negative bacteria are a class of bacteria that does not retain crystal violet. Instead they are counter-stained pink by Safranin‚ and because of this‚ identifying positive is possible. One of the many differences between gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria is their peptidoglycan

against tested bacteria and fungus and more commonly used antibiotics were used in comparison to propolis samples. The second method was employed by measuring Minimal Inhibitory Concentration & Minimal Bactericidal; Fungicidal Concentrations (MIC‚ MBC & MFC) using two fold dilution method for propolis extracts and ethanol 70% as a solvent control in serial concentrations. The Results exhibited that propolis is more efficient than some antibiotic discs. The most sensitive bacteria against (EEP)
