Microbiology and Process Analysis laboratory 25/10/2013 Group 1 Microbiology laboratory Abstract The lab exercises were divided into three different analysis; microscopy‚ soil microbiology and bacterial growth. The main aim of laboratory work with Escherichia coli and soil sample was to introduce students to bacterial growth in pure culture and soil microbial flora. The experiment of bacterial growth in pure culture using optical density

Microbiology Study Guide Chapters 1-6 Chapter 1 Main Themes of Microbiology Microorganisms Most are not Pathogens Prokaryotic-no nucleus or organelles Very simplistic—like bacteria Eukaryotic-has nucleus and organelles like mitochondria Includes fungus‚ and animals Acellular-not even a complete cell Includes viruses and prions like those that cause Mad Cow disease Six main types of microorganisms Bacterium (prokaryotic) Fungus (eukaryotic) Algae (eukaryotic) Virus (acellular)

Review Sheet Exercise I: Survey of Higher Microorganisms: Protozoa‚ Fungi‚ and Helminths Protozoa (group of Kingdom Protista) 1. Amoeba a. nucleus- dark center of the cell b. food vacuole- They feed by taking nutrients into the cell by diffusion and packaging it into (clear circles spread throughout the cell) c. pseudopod- “false foot”; the motility results from the streaming of the protoplasm that forms the process 2. Entamoeba causes amoebiasis or amoebic dysentery‚

Pathology: The study of disease Etiology: The study of the cause of a disease Pathogenesis: The development of disease Infection: Colonization of the body by pathogens Virulence - the ability to infect a host Pathogenicity - the ability to cause disease in a host Outbreak – (localized epidemic) – more cases of a particular disease than expected in a given area or among a specialized group of people over a particular period of time. Epidemic – large numbers of people over a wide geographic

During my time at the University of Wisconsin- La Crosse‚ it was there that I not only discovered my passion for microbiology; but it was where I became aware of my career goal‚ to be an educator at the university level. I am grateful for the many experiences and the motivation brought on by my peers and mentors‚ which I came across to realize and to bring to fruition my goals. I strongly believe that the education that I receive in conjuncture with the strong mentorship that the State University

some preliminary guesses can be made from the morphology of microbes on various differential agars‚ various other tests need to be done to differentiate and confirm their identity. RESULTS Bacteriology – When grown on MacConkey agar‚ A had abundant growth of pink punctiform colonies that are circular and moist. Microbes A are gram-negative cocci. B had moderate growth of yellow punctiform colonies that are circular and moist. Microbes B cells are gram-positive cocci. C had abundant 2mm growth of

Lab12-Medical Microbiology- Part1– Differential Media/Biochemical Tests‚ Sp2012 (Set all of your margins to ½”) Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to help you become a little familiar with some of the tests that can be typically performed in a clinical or research lab facility. These tests may help in determining a particular pathogen’s growth needs. There are several sections to this lab. Find each section and complete the “Preparing for Class” sections.

Microbiology Home Assignment Student Name: Aisha Mohamed K-215810920 Lecturer Name: Dr. Faruk Sarkinfada Task 1: Describe the different classes of bacteria based on: a. Cell wall composition • :Gram negative . • Gram positive. b. Nutritional requirements : • Autotroghs:take nutrition from carbon dioxide. • Heterotrophs take the nutrition from organic carbon(carbs‚lipids‚protein) • Prototroph: take nutrition from sunlight. • Chemotrophic take nutrition from chemicals. c. Oxygen requirement

Staphylococcus aureus is found as normal part of the skin floral in the nasal passages and on the skin. An estimated twenty percent of people naturally have harmless Staphylococcus aureus on their skin and are long-term carries for Staphylococcus aureus.
