MICROBIOLOGY What is the purpose of general growth media‚ selective media‚ and differential media? Give examples of each. General Purpose Media General Purpose media is designed to grow most organisms and do not contain growth inhibitors. Standard Methods Agar and Blood Agar Bases are examples of general purpose media. Differential Media Differential media contain a component that allow an observable change when a specific chemical reaction takes place. Simmons Citrate Agar is an example

However‚ chromosome dimers might be formed by homologous recombination between sister chromosome before cell division which is lethal to the cell. Luckily‚ these chromosome dimers can be resolved back into monomers by a site-specific

A medical microbiology lab performs testing on human samples collected from different body sites. The tests are used to detect and identify any microorganisms capable of causing disease. Knowing of unknown microorganism is important on how this microorganism works and how it is structured‚ means knowing how it can affect humans. The purpose of this study was to identify an unknown bacterium by applying all methods that were previously conducted and learned in the medical microbiology laboratory

products. The question is‚ which antimicrobial treatment‚ Proactive™ or Clearasil™‚ will kill more bacteria and have a larger inhibition zone when exposed to bacteria? My hypothesis is‚ if I expose Clearasil™ to Escherchia Coli and Streptococcus Epidermis‚ then it will kill more bacteria and have a larger inhibition zone‚ than Proactive™ will. Experimental Design Materials Needed for this experiment‚ is a container of Proactive™ and a container of Clearasil™. Some tools needed are:

Foodborne Illness – Staphylococcus • What is the infectious agent (pathogen) that causes this infectious disease? Staphylococcus is an unmodifiable bacterium that causes Botulism. Which mean that individuals have no control over catching or not catching this disease. Since botulism is such strong and dangerous bacteria‚ that ingesting the smallest amount can make individuals sick. More important is other living forms or life like bacteria’s are changing‚ and becoming resistant to the
