disk‚ impregnated with the compound to be tested‚ is placed on the surface of the agar. The compound diffuses out from the filter paper into the agar. The concentration of the compound will be higher next to the disk‚ and will decrease gradually as distance from the disk increases. If the compound is effective against bacteria at a certain concentration‚ no colonies will grow wherever the concentration in the agar is greater than or equal to that effective concentration. This region is called the

Because this experiment uses materials that represent those used in the streaking on agar plates the ability to simulate the events that occur when streaking is similar and allows for visualization instantly. In this experiment materials will be gathered that are representative of the tools need to complete the actual experiment of agar plate streaking

there are structures called ascospores. It is these structures‚ ascospores‚ where genetic variation that arises from crossing over is easily seen (Davidson). The organism Sordaria Fimicola is a good example of this process because it is easy to grow on agar plates and because they are easy to be seen when looked at through a microscope (Davidson). There are three strands of Sordaria Fimicola used in this experiment; all were retrieved from an area known as the Evolution Canyon. The Evolution Canyon has

Abstract Introduction An antimicrobial is a substance that kills or inhibits the growth of microorganisms such as bacteria‚ fungi‚ or protozoans (Antimicrobial). Antimicrobial drugs either kill microbes or prevent the growth of microbes. Disinfectants are antimicrobial substances used on non-living objects or outside the body. Ginger Figure 1 : Ginger (Studies Reveal Ginger Lowers Colon Cancer Risk) Ginger is commonly used around the world and has been employed in the treatment‚ cure‚ and

TSA (tryptic soy agar) media was placed in a different place to collect cells as well as printed with a thumb print from each member of the group. Incubation is used because each sample needed a certain temperature for the cells to grow. Inspection was used to look at each plate and see how many colonies are found. One TSA plate was placed wherever the student wanted in the building and the other was for each group member to press their thumb print in. The SBA (sheep blood agar) was used for a mouth

The sample collected was screened for CV dye decolorizing bacterial strains by inoculating 10 ml of wastewater into flask containing 100 ml of MSM broth. The flasks were incubated at 35°C under shaking conditions (120 rpm). After 48 hr of incubation period‚ 1ml of the culture broth was appropriately diluted and plated on MSM-CV dye amended agar plates. The morphologically distinct bacterial

4.5 DISCUSSION The bioluminescent bacteria grow well and produce good glowing in the SWC agar media compared to the LA agar media. In LA agar media‚ the production of light was very deem. It also took much time to solidify and the agar media was too soft and forms hole‚ therefore good streaking couldn’t be done. There might be error in the composition of the LA agar media ingredients. However‚ when SWC agar media used‚ there was good growth of bacteria and bright production of light. When comparing

For this experiment you will need 39 agar plates‚ sterile cotton swabs‚ a concentrated amount of Escherichia coli (E. coli)‚ three different levels of antibiotic (Ampicillin: 1mg‚ 5mg‚ and 10mg)‚ a bunsen burner‚ metal tweezers‚ an incubator‚ 27 broths‚ and a ruler which should all be provided through your laboratory. For the first generation‚ you will be using 12 plates. Three of the plates will be labeled G1 control‚ three of the plates will be labeled G1/1 mg‚ three plates will be labeled G1/5
