Introduction to the Microbial World; History of Microbiology By: Case Assignment Module 1 MIC 100: TUI University Date: March 17‚ 2013 In response to the web site article about Edward Jenner‚ I believe the author paid an over emphasis on the how the discovery of the small pox vaccine was the greatest of public health achievements of all times. But I am of a different opinion. I believe that despite this great contribution‚ Edward Jenner does not deserve the greater credit in his

is still open to controversy. Does a dose of caffeine heighten one ’s mental performance‚ or does it achieve the opposite? Many experiments have already taken place in order to discover how caffeine effects a person ’s mental performance. In the Radiological Society of America ’s annual conference in December of 2005‚ Florian Koppelstatter reported an experiment in which he used functional magnetic resonance imaging(fMRI) to determine how coffee effects brain activity. Subjects were then given

Why will insulators affect how long a test tube of hot water stays hot? Background Information I know that there are many different ways of insulating this test tube‚ shiny foil can be used because it’s a poor emitter of radiation and it will reflect escaping heat by reflecting‚ because this method is used in flasks to keep hot drinks warm. Though it is a good conductor so will lose heat through to surfaces its touching but it shouldn’t matter because it will be touching air and glass which both

effect of water and fertilizer on corn seedlings Biology 1108 Lab Section November 7‚ 2012 Abstract The effect of water and fertilizer on corn seedlings was examined. It was hypothesized before the experiment that enough water with sunlight and air should make the plants grow healthy. It has to do with photosynthesis. Fertilizer is also going to make the plants grow much faster; this is because of the nutrients in it. The experiment took about four to six weeks to complete; it took some days for

EXPERIMENT NO-1 AIM- To determine the frequency of A. C. mains by using an electric vibrator. APPARATUS- Electric vibrator‚ table lamp‚ pulley‚ weight box‚ fishing cord‚ a. c. source. THEORY- when a cord of mass per unit length m is connected to the vibrating rod of the vibrator and stretched with a tension T‚ the cord vibrators in segments. If the length of the cord is then adjusted until the nodes are clearly marked‚ the frequency of the stretched string is the same as of the vibrating rod which

I’m writing you to express my interest in becoming a member of the ASM Task Committee on Microbiology in Nursing. Although I’m not from the United States of America‚ I think this committee might profit from an European perspective and my experience‚ so I will use this opportunity to quickly introduce myself. I’m a medical doctor and clinical microbiologist with a PhD in biomedical sciences‚ and after my doctoral degree I quickly became an assistant professor at the Department for Biomedical Sciences

Aim: The aim of the experiment that was carried out was to see‚ at what temperature and in which standard solution‚ does the amount of dye left in the boiling tube had the highest percentage transmission. Beetroot was used for the experiment because it was easier to see the dye after the practical was completed. Putting beetroot cylinders into different boiling tubes‚ which contained
