Grams staining method and reliability of this method. According to me‚ Grams staining process is a simple technique that assists in recognition of etiological agent and therefore can be called as one of the most significant staining practices in microbiology. Though‚ Gram is concerned that the staining process developed by him is imperfect because not all bacteria can be stained by it‚ but in my opinion‚ when we pour ethanol over the slide to wash away the dye then only definite bacteria can retain

Themes of W.H. Auden’s "The Unknown Citizen" Conformity and Anonymity in the Modern World "Social Security Number? Birth date? Nine digit telephone number starting with area code? Mother’s Maiden Name?" In many ways‚ we are simply faceless numbers to modern society‚ not individuals with feelings and emotions and dreams. W.H. Auden‚ a well-known English poet and dramatist‚ discusses this important theme in his poem "An Unknown Soldier." Auden‚ being a modernist‚ is concerned with this modern idea

Systems Biology Systems biology involves the study of an organism as one single system. Instead of analysing all the individual components that make up a cell‚ the cell is instead viewed as an interacting network of genes‚ proteins and biochemical reactions and these are studied as a whole. In 20th century‚ molecular biology was focused upon. A ‘reductionist’ approach was followed‚ in which the individual components‚ such as the cell nucleus or sugar metabolism‚ were studied in isolation. However

Identification of Two Unknown Species of Bacteria in Tube #72 Introduction: There are many reasons for knowing the identity of microorganisms. The reasons range from knowing the causative agent of a disease in a patient‚ so as to know how it can be treated‚ to knowing the correct microorganism to be used for making certain foods or antibiotics. This study was done by applying all of the methods that have been learned so far in the microbiology laboratory class for the identification of an unknown bacterium

producing a form of stilbene (Figure 1). This reaction favored a crude Z-Stilbene crystal product over its E counterpart. When Z-Stilbene underwent photoisomerization with iodine for 1 hour it reconfigured almost exclusively into its more stable counterpart E-Stilbene. The reaction produced very low yield of 6.3% due to the nature of the reaction and the speed at which iodine reacts. The purity of E-Stilbene could have been increased by allowing the reaction to perform longer and to use a faster reactant
