Multiplication of contaminant bacteria in urine and interpretation of delayed culture. Abstract A prospective study of the bacterial populations of non-infected urine was mounted in an attempt to define the length of delay between voiding and analysis during which culture would not give false positive results due to the multiplication of contaminant bacteria present at the time of voiding. The findings suggest that culture of urine within four hours of voiding is likely to give a true indication

Discussion After doing a series of different biochemical tests for the isolated organisim from the sputum sample‚ it was concluded that the unknown Gram positive organism was Streptococcus pyogenes. The sputum sample was first inoculated in the agar plates MAC‚ SBAP‚ CHOC and also a direct gram stain of the sample was performed. After a day of incubation‚ the MAC agar gave a negative result‚ therefore it is not a Gram-negative bacteria and non-lactose fermenting. The SBAP and CHOC showed growth

Abstract— Azadirachtaindica fruit pulp and leaf extract were used to test antimicrobial activity against disease causing bacteria Staphylococcuaureus. Extracts of varying concentrations of Azadirachtaindica fruit pulp and leaf extract were prepared using Phosphate Buffer and tested against test organisms using agar diffusion method. Oxfloxacinof same varying concentrations were used to compare the effect of antimicrobial activity of fruit pulp and leaf extract. Keywords: Azadirachtaindica‚ Antimicrobial

and Biotechnology (BIOTECH)‚ the institutions presented an overview of their researchers but not in a detailed way due to time constraints. Included of their researchers were the Virgin Coconut Oil‚ Organic Fertilizers‚ researches on bacteria (microbiology) like the Water Testing‚ and many more. But‚ they weren’t able to discuss it further and in detail thus I wonder how they were able to conduct their researches. They were just able to roam us around in their laboratories‚ and we have witnessed
