Lab Report #1: Observing Bacteria Microbiology Abstract: This lab exercise familiarized the student with the use of a microscope by observing and identifying various different slides under the microscope. The student practiced observing the given slides under the 10x‚ 40x‚ and 100x (oil immersion) objective lenses‚ which allowed for the identification of the different organism’s shapes and sizes. Purpose: The aim of this exercise is to equip the student with the knowledge

The identification of an unknown bacterial environmental isolate through a series of morphological‚ physiological and differential exercises. The purpose of the environmental isolate report is to learn what is necessary in order to take an unknown environmental isolate (EI) and identify it. This was achieved through a series of exercises that provided information on the morphological‚ physiological and biochemical traits of the EI which were then compiled and interpreted in order to make a presumptive

The Figure 4.20 shows the profile growth of Escherichia coli type K-12 which was cultured in 20 g/L of glycerol treated with supplements from a carbon source under anaerobic condition and the medium supplemented with 10 g/L of trypton. About 10% working volume of inoculums were added to the medium for the profile growth process. The effects on growth curves of strains of Escherichia coli were investigated by measuring the concentration of succinic acid produced and its optical density by using HPLC

State the principle of triple beam balance A beam balance measures mass as opposed to weight‚ so the mass you weigh will be the same on the moon as it is on earth. Gravity is taken out of the equation‚ unlike a spring balance that measures weight and would measure an article to be 1/6 of the weight on the moon as it would be on earth using the same spring balance that relied on gravity. The principle is that of moment‚ or turning force/torque)‚ calculated by force x distance. Fundamentally‚

SCOPE OF MICROBIOLOGY: What is Microbiology? | � Microbiology is the study of microorganisms� Microorganisms‚ roughly‚ are living things that are too small to be seen with the naked eye� Microorganisms cannot be distinguished phylogenetically from �macroorganisms� (see variety of microorganisms‚ below)� Microbiology is more a collection of techniques: aseptic technique‚ pure culture technique‚ microscopic observation of whole organisms‚ etc.� Microbiologists

Introduction to Microbiology – Case Study 1 Kristen Alejos You are working as an emergency room nurse in Topeka when a mother brings in her 8 year old son because of severe‚ bloody diarrhea. When questioned‚ the boy said that it hurts when he goes to the bathroom and his mother said he had vomited in the previous two days. When asked about their previous movements‚ the mother and son both mentioned a backyard barbeque that had taken place 6 days earlier. The boy complained that his mother

* The most important score is the Expect value‚ or E-value‚ which can be defined as the number of hits any random sequence (with the same length as yours) would have in the database. * E-values for good hits are usually written something like: 3e-42‚ which is the same as 3 x 10-42 ‚ a very small number * Bad hits are very common‚ and they have e-values in a more familiar form: for example‚ 0.004 or 1.2 * A really good e-values is less than 1e-180‚ which underflows the computer’s
