species of particles from the mixed culture. This is completed through the isolation technique of streak plate. The objective of this experiment is to replicate the technique of streak plate but on a much larger scale. Because it is on a larger scale the particles are able to be visually observed as they are isolated using the streaking technique as the experiment is conducted. The benefits of the streaking technique is when a cultures has multiple species they are able to be more easily identified

learned so far in the microbiology laboratory class for the identification of unknown bacteria. The identification process can be completed with a series of deferential stains and biochemical tests. Creating a dichotomous key helps to limit the amount of biochemical tests done on an unknown organism and by observation and recording of data the unknown organism can be found. Materials and Methods The procedure for all tests performed was taken from Leboffe and Pierce’s Microbiology: Laboratory Theory

colorless colonies. Multiple medical experiments are credited towards transformation‚ especially ones involving cancer and the transformation of normal cells to neoplastic and cancerous cells. Introduction The general purpose of the Transformation Lab was to observe the difference in bacterial growth under differing media conditions to help understand the process of transformation and how it contributes to the life of living organisms. "Transformation" is what occurs when a cell receives and expresses

Family: Enterobacteriaceae Genus: Serratia Species: Marcescens Abstract Microorganisms are constantly finding ways to resists to antibiotics. For this reason‚ it is important to test and observe unknown organisms in the lab to continually improve the health and well being of society. The objective of this report was to first isolate a single colony of an unknown culture on a LB agar plate. From here‚ a slant was made and used for multiple types of testing in order to

the microorganism was identified as Enterbacteriaceae Enterobacter aerogenes. INTRODUCTION Microbiology is a specialized area of biology that places an emphasis on microorganisms. Several microorganisms are included in this subject‚ such as bacteria‚ fungi‚ algae and protozoa. The most important fact that should come out of microbiology is the “profound influence” that microorganisms have on the aspects of earth (Cowan‚ 2012). The objective of this project was

Session #1 Lab 1 OBSERVING BACTERIA AND BLOOD D Haynes BIO-218A Microbiology Lab Friday‚ January 17‚ 5:00pm Objective(s): Our objective is to gain knowledge of the functions and operations of the microscope through observation of bacteria and blood slides that are available for this assignment. We are also learning to “see” and observe various bacteria and their shapes as well as live yogurt cultures‚ blood‚ plaque and cheek swab samples and their arrangements. We
