killed. Over the 3-week incubation period‚ the number of specific types of antibiotic-producing bacteria increased‚ and high antimicrobial activity (MIC‚ ∼10 μg/ml) was observed in methanol extracts of the inoculated red soils. Antibiotic-producing microorganisms whose numbers increased during incubation included actinomycetes‚ Lysobacter spp.‚ and Bacillus spp. The actinomycetes produced actinomycin C2 and actinomycin C3. No myxobacteria or lytic bacteriophages with activity against either M. luteus or S

For milk a spread plate method was used and for poultry a streak method was applied using different Medias. All food contain a certain amount of microorganisms of one or different type. Introduction Salmonellosi is an important global health problem causing substial morbidity and also has a significant economic impact. In the United States‚ the latest estimates indicate that one in six or 48 million

EFFECT OF BIODEGRADABLE SM PLASTIC BAG IN DIFFERENT SUBSTRATE ABSTRACT The purpose of this Investigatory project is to determine the effect of different substrates on the biodegradability of SM plastic bags. The materials needed are: 6‚ 1-litre glass jars; 6‚ 7”x9” aluminums trays; 12 pcs. 3”x4” SM plastic bags; 500g loam soil; 500g compost soil; 500mL seawater; 500mL tap water; Analytical balance; Graduated cylinder; and Weighing scale. The procedure involved cutting the SM plastics bags

survive and multiply in the present environment conditions. Microbial consortium was sequenced and compared using BLAST‚ ClustalW and PHYLIP. In order to identify potential microorganism‚ microbial consortium was exposed to increasing concentration of Tributyl Phosphate viz. 10‚ 25‚ 50‚ 75 and 100 mg/l in MSM‚ the potential microorganism was found to survive at higher concentration and utilized it as a sole source of carbon. This organism was identified as Pseudomonas pseudoalcaligenes strain DSM 50018T

All health care workers who have contact with patients and equipment must all adhere to the Infection Control Policies and Procedures to prevent from spreading infection to one another. In most of the health care facilities‚ many ill people are being treated and cared for so they are a lot of microorganisms present. Patients will come in contact

5) My hypothesis: “The higher the concentration of antiseptic‚ the more powerful it will be at inhibiting/ killing microorganisms which cause bacterial growth.” This theory supports my result because as you can see the zone of inhibition increases due to the increasing concentration of antiseptic. The higher concentration of antiseptic means it has been less diluted‚ which means its more stronger than other more diluted concentrations‚ this high concentration will determine how powerful the antiseptic

Microorganisms are tiny‚ small living things which can not be seen with eyes. They spread everywhere around the world. Most people think that microorganisms are harmful to the environment. Humans exploit these small living things hundreds of years ago. Science has developed and scientists have established new science related to microorganisms‚ it is called microbiology. In this essay‚ I will talk about one of the oldest and most widespread microorganisms in our planet‚ bacteria. Bacteria lives everywhere

A. Describe the difference between an obligate and facultative aerobe. An obligate aerobe is a microorganism that must have oxygen for growth and will grow at the top of the test tube. A facultative aerobe prefers oxygen but it is not necessary for growth. Many of these microorganisms will grow at the top of the tube‚ but will also be dispersed throughout as well. B. Discuss the temperature requirements of the organisms (you grew) in this lab. Both Staphylococcus epidermis and Lactobacillus acidophilus
