NTRODUCTION Often in the study of microbiology‚ the need to identify an unknown microbe may arise. This aids in the recognition of which microbes are harmful or pathogenic as well as those that may be beneficial to us in some way. This report will detail how a similar project was performed in order to identify two unknown micobes using the techniques that were learnt during the course of the semester. We embarked on the project with the knowledge that we would have to identify a Gram(+) as well

Steven‚ I think firearms identification is quite fascinating and intriguing as well. I too‚ own several firearms and find them to be empowering to say the least. What is more amazing to me is how the markings on a bullet are as specific to a weapon as fingerprints are to a person.
