In this experiment we will inoculate individual vials of nutrient broth with various organisms that are known to be resistant to multiple antibiotics. We will also inoculate various organisms that are as close to the wild type as is feasible. The vials will be allowed to incubate at 37 degrees Celsius for 24

Microbiology and Process Analysis laboratory 25/10/2013 Group 1 Microbiology laboratory Abstract The lab exercises were divided into three different analysis; microscopy‚ soil microbiology and bacterial growth. The main aim of laboratory work with Escherichia coli and soil sample was to introduce students to bacterial growth in pure culture and soil microbial flora. The experiment of bacterial growth in pure culture using optical density

Introduction In this week’s laboratory period students had the opportunity to perform a common procedure preformed by many if not all microbiologists known as genetic transformation. Genetic transformation is the ability to move DNA into an organism and thereby altering its genotypic and genetic makeup (2). Genetic transformation has shown to have a wide variety of uses in many scientific studies. In agriculture‚ gene coding for traits such as frost‚ pest‚ or spoilage resistance have been genetically

inoculating loop and dry heat technique‚ isolation streak was performed and nutrient agar plates were to be incubated in a room temperature for the next 48 hours. Nutrient Agar plate was used for isolation streak technique in order to see two types of bacterium growing in a room temperature. After incubating for 48 hours Nutrient agar plates were examined for bacterial growth of two different colonies. On a Nutrient agar plate two different cultures were observed. In order to proceed identification

Expected results in a confirmed case of shigellosis are as follows: Brilliant Green Agar – Isolated Shigella colonies which do not ferment lactose or sucrose and appear red or white in color with no growth to trace growth on the Agar plate will be present. Triple Sugar-Iron Agar – Presence of Shigella will manifest as a red slant with a yellow butt with no H2S present. In Brilliant Green Agar‚ E. coli O157 would present as isolated

analysis. Most frequently‚ the identification of a specific organism must be accompanied by a sensitivity study. Also due to the changing patterns of resistance in other bacteria to antibacterial agents‚ sensitivity studies are essential. Clinically‚ the agar diffusion method is commonly used. The organism can be reported as being sensitive‚ intermediate or resistant to an antibiotic. Sensitivity depends on the growth characteristics of the organism and diffusion characteristics of the antibiotic. Some

determine what optimum combination of ingredients would best increase efficiency in soil productivity to equal the result of hydroponics (Cultivation of plants in nutrient solution rather than in soil). Through research our group came to the conclusion that agar‚ pearlite and mulched grass could all greatly contribute to enriching the nutrient of the soil. We predict that one of the treatments‚ using the above listed ingredients‚ will have a greater growth rate than the controlled plant strictly using

Testing this could be done by using a Petri dish full of agar and testing different bacteria on it to see if the bacteria obtained is gram positive or gram negative. My hypothesis is there will be a lot of bacterial growth on all of the plate.

A sharpie was used to section off four quadrants of the dish for
