Tanti Lim Thurs AM Unknown Project I. Introduction The purpose to this lab was to isolate and identify two unknown bacteria from a mixed culture provided to us. 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 microbes in question . The identification of unknown bacteria is a time honored part of microbiology courses. It will challenge

Introduction The ability to identify metals is an extremely important one. With this ability‚ we can correctly assign different traits‚ and use the metal in its most suitable environment. This is important to many industries‚ where metals play an increasingly large role. Determining the identity of the metal is paramount to determining what conditions to use the metal under. This seemly simple task is‚ however‚ can be quite complex‚ as there are many ways by which one can identify a metal‚ each with varying

Mrs. Feeney Biology 9 October 16‚ 2012 Identifying Organic Compounds Objective: To use indicators to test for the presence of organic compounds in certain substances. Theory: Major types of organic compounds in some common foods are Lipids‚ Carbohydrates‚ and Proteins. An indicator is a chemical compound that changes color and structure when exposed to certain conditions and is therefore useful for chemical tests. The purpose of using distilled water as one of the substances in the test

In the unknown identification labs‚ we have identified our unknown as Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is Gram negative and rod shaped that we found to be motile in the lab. Our strain of P. aeruginosa formed colonies that were round in shape and had scalloped margins on nutrient agar. On our agar slant‚ the P. aeruginosa colonies had a filiform appearance on the edges. I think we correctly identified our unknown as P. aeruginosa because we performed several different tests‚ eleven

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

The following three pieces were all found in the book A World of Art by Henry M. Sayre. The three sculptures‚ Puppy‚ Cloud Gate‚ and Great Serpent Mound‚ where all selected because of their relevance to nature. Both Puppy and The Great Serpent Mound are almost literally made of natural material‚ particularly vegetation. On the other hand‚ Cloud Gate is made of stainless steal‚ but yet the steal reflects it’s surrounding. Particularly Could Gate reflects the sky above it‚ and thus incorporates nature

Mr. Brown all your tests look ok. Your triglycerides are at 145‚ cholesterol 210‚ hdl 33‚ and ldl 160. Triglycerides are chemical compounds digested by the body to provide it with the energy for metabolism. Triglycerides are the most common form of fat in the body. They are the main ingredient in vegetable oils and animal fats. Cholesterol is a soft‚ waxy substance found in all of your body’s cells. Your body needs cholesterol in order to work properly. This is because your body uses it to hold

Identifying Organic Compounds Joe Harris 11/12/07 1. Background Organic compounds are‚ by definition‚ any chemical compound containing carbon. These compounds include carbohydrates‚ polysaccharides‚ lipids‚ proteins‚ and nucleic acids. Each one of these compounds has a different purpose. Carbohydrates give energy to cells when consumed. Lipids are basically the
