Lab Report - Microbes Aim: To investigate four areas of the school and to find out which of the four have the most microbes. Areas to Sample: 1. Girl’s locker room (Senior school) 2. Girl’s locker room (Elementary school) 3. Boy’s locker room (Senior school) 4. Boy’s locker room (Elementary school) Hypothesis: We predict that the boy’s locker room in the senior school will have the most microbes. First of all‚ there are more people using our locker rooms in the Senior School

condition. The experiment starts with two petri dishes‚ and we filled each dish with fifty radish seeds. We made our first observations about the seeds that we see. We labeled one petri dish “Control‚” and the other was labeled “Experimental.” The experimental petri dish was put in the freezer for seven days‚ and the control petri dish was set on the counter in the normal-temp classroom for seven days as well. After those seven days‚ the experimental dish was removed from the freezer‚ and we used

The ten Petri dishes that exclusively did not contain an antibiotic in the bacteria culture served as the control. There were ten trials for the control and each level of IV. The experiment began by cleaning the work area and sterilizing it with 70% ethanol. Then trypticase soy agar (TSA) was poured into six groups of 60 Petri dishes (See Appendix 1). The dishes were labeled based on the antibiotic used and were left to dry and solidify at room temperature. After an hour‚ the dishes were placed in

Label each grid with the different percentage of salt in each solution (0.5%‚ 1.0%‚ 1.5%). Measure and cut 1 inch of one-sided tape. Stick the one sided tape on the side of the grid onto the back of a petri dish; repeat this for the other 2 petri dishes. Use the graduated cylinder and collect three 30-ml salt

It was necessary to ensure no contamination of the spores. He then proceeded to distribute the spores around the dish and solution. After sealing the petri dish back up‚ I labeled the dish with our group name and date. Finally‚ the petri dish was placed inside of the culture dome to properly germinate. The second

Clare Worley 6S 4 - 16 - 18 What Surface in OLV has the most Germs? Introduction I have tested several surfaces in Our Lady of Victory to see which surface has the most germs. I tested ten surfaces and let the petri dishes grow for five days. Over the five days I counted the spores each day and took pictures every other day. It is amazing how things can look and feel clean but they are actually filthy. It is also crazy how many surfaces we touch every day and how one

inoculate the agar dish labeled water with the water sample. Use only enough water to cover the top surface of the dish (approximately 4 drops). 4. Cover the dish and let it sit for 30 minutes to ensure the water soaks into the agar. 5. Incubate the dish upside down at room temperature for 24–72 hours. 6. Observe the dish and count the number and types of colonies. Record the results in Data Table 1: Environmental Colony Formation‚ in the Lab Report Assistant section. 7. Soak the dish in a 10%-bleach
