Having the ability to collect and identify unknown microorganisms is vital in health and medicine. This capability is important for a variety of reasons‚ such as knowing the causative agent of disease‚ knowing if the microorganism obtains any beneficial properties and knowing the correct microorganism to use to create a successful antibiotic. Implementing the experimental methods learned thus far in the microbiology laboratory allowed an unknown bacterium to be identified as a result of this study

Bacteria and Archaea The Archaea are presently recognized as one of the two main domains of prokaryotes. The majority of genes that indicate Archaea to be different from Bacteria are for information transfer processes such as DNA replication‚ transcription and translation. Of these‚ DNA replication machinery appears to be most different between the two domains. In terms of transcription‚ the core subunits of the RNA polymerase are the same in Bacteria and Archaea‚ but archaea also contains several

a. The bacteria that causes botulism are found in soil‚ water‚ animal guts and dung. When the spores exposed to low oxygen and certain temperature‚ they produce botulinum toxin‚ able to germinate‚ metabolize‚ food sources through an aerobic respiration to produce toxin. The toxin blocks the release of acetylcholine from motor nerve endings causing paralysis symptoms. The botulism either food born‚ eating contaminated home-canned foods where the fermentation takes place. or through abrasion in the

The disadvantages? 70% alcohol mixtures are capable of killing most bacteria within five minutes. However‚ the mixture is ineffective against spores and has limited effect on viruses. Additionally‚ the 70%

ANALYSIS OF BACTERIA GROWTH Abstract Bacteria can be found everywhere on the earth. Bacteria are single-celled organisms that lack a nucleus‚ mitochondria‚ and chloroplasts and are surrounded by a cell wall containing a peptidoglycan layer. They are defined by their small size and wide range of shapes. In this experiment we separated organisms in a mixed culture to study the colony morphology and physical characteristics and determine which organism was present in higher numbers‚ as determined

Isolation of Bacteria in our Physical Environment Introduction: The purpose of the lab is to apply what has been learned so far in Microbiology‚ and use it to collect and examine microbial species from the physical environment. The physical environment around the lab will be utilized to find out the variety of different microbial species growing in and around the lab. This investigation will help in preparation for the individual projects that will be done at the end of the semester. Materials
