While microbes are often viewed negatively due to their association with many human illnesses‚ microbes are also responsible for many beneficial processes such as industrial fermentation (e.g. the production of alcohol and dairy products)‚ antibiotic production and as vehicles for cloning in higher organisms such as plants. Scientists have also exploited their knowledge of microbes to produce biotechnologically important enzymes such as Taq polymerase‚ reporter genes for use in other genetic systems

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

The purpose of the following study is to determine where the two unknown bacteria acquired in Microbiology lab should be classified in regards to temperature‚ pH level‚ and osmoregularity. It is important to classify bacteria in order to identify them. Identification of bacteria is important because they are not only useful but potentially dangerous as well. The identification of bacteria can lead to breakthroughs in healthcare regarding treatment of old and new diseases alike. Identifying bacteria

Introduction To Scanning Electron Microscopy At the completion of the prac‚ the practical experience of operating a scanning electron microscope is sufficient to operate the particular machine in the future. During the experiment‚ two different gold plated samples are analysed under the SEM and compositional and topographic information is identified and analysed. Both the information is derived by changing the working distance‚ accelerating voltage‚ aperture size‚ probe current‚ resolution and

Biology was fascinated me tremendously particularly when I was introduced to field of microbiology. I used to wonder how these primitive microbes grow and communicate with each other. Theoretical knowledge of microbiology grabbed my attention and made me curious about these tiny microbes which we cannot be seen through our naked eyes. Therefore I decided to pursue my higher studies and specialisation in microbiology. I started my graduation
