Requirements for Unknown Report You have been provided a mixed culture (a gram positive and a gram negative) from which you should have isolated each type of organism‚ described their colonies on a TSA plate‚ and described their cellular morphology. You were graded on this activity separately. After you have isolated your gram negative in pure culture you will be subjecting it to various biochemical tests and making observations about the cells‚ colonies‚ growth temperature preferences‚ etc. in

Drosophila melanogaster is reared in specific conditions and its salivary gland extracted to study endomitosis. I hypothesize that I will see endomitosis in the salivary gland chromosome of third instar larval D. melanogaster. My prediction to test my hypothesis is that polytene chromosomes will be formed if endomitosis occurs. Materials

Anthony Bryant Human Biology September 23‚ 2011 Tracing the Scientific Method 1. While the hypothesis is never explicitly stated‚ it is safe to assume that the researchers’ hypothesis is that coffee does in fact‚ prevent the development of high blood sugar. The question used to form this hypothesis was‚ does the ingestion of coffee prevent the development of hyperglycemia in mice? 2. The control group in this study would be the 11 mice that were given the water. They would be considered the

their abilities to develop and adjust to altering environments. That is why it is so significant to be competent to identify microorganisms. This study was conducted by applying techniques and experiments cultured in microbiology lab for the identification of the unknown microorganism. Introduction: Identification of bacteria is significant because they are not only beneficial but potentially hazardous as well. The identification of bacteria can lead to breakthroughs in healthcare regarding treatment

HYPOTHESIS Using train conductors as representatives for all of human kind we can postulate with some accuracy the percent of the population of Earth that are complete and total assholes. If you have ever lived in a small town with train tracks running through it you will know that the conductor of the train is required to sound the whistle at every crossing. This is a 4-part whistle; 2 long‚ 1 short‚ 1 long. My hypothesis is that we can calculate what percentage of the population of planet Earth

MICROBIOLOGY 3444-007 Gram Negative Unknown Unknown Bacteria #14 LeNaiya Kydd 4/2/2014 Abstract In order to be able to identify the unknown organism that was given to us‚ we had to conduct a number of different tests. These biological tests are used because they help us be able to identify the properties of the unknown we have and be able to compare our observed results with actual results of all the potential organisms. When all of the data of the test are put together it is easy to

Identification and Recreation of Unknown White Compound #643p November 13‚ 2012 INTRODUCTION: The identity of the unknown solid white compound is determined and verified through a series of tests which uncover physical and chemical properties necessary for identification. A new sample of the same compound is then created to further prove the accuracy of the identification. The compound must be identified in order to be used. For example‚ KCl is used in medicine‚ scientific applications‚ and

The purpose of the following study is to determine where the two unknown bacteria acquired in Microbiology lab should be classified in regards to temperature‚ pH level‚ and osmoregularity. It is important to classify bacteria in order to identify them. Identification of bacteria is important because they are not only useful but potentially dangerous as well. The identification of bacteria can lead to breakthroughs in healthcare regarding treatment of old and new diseases alike. Identifying bacteria

Determining the Unknown Microorganism from a Mixed Culture Mylah Ferland‚ Rivier University MICRO 206‚ March 16th‚ 2016 Introduction: An unknown bacterium experiment‚ this experiment was done to discover what bacterium was in a mixed culture sample. This experiment worked with enteric bacteria which are members of the Enterobacteriaceae and live in the intestinal tract (Willey et al.‚ 2014). Also found in Willey et al (2014) is some characteristics of enterics such as they all degrade sugars by

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
