The disadvantages? 70% alcohol mixtures are capable of killing most bacteria within five minutes. However‚ the mixture is ineffective against spores and has limited effect on viruses. Additionally‚ the 70%

ANALYSIS OF BACTERIA GROWTH Abstract Bacteria can be found everywhere on the earth. Bacteria are single-celled organisms that lack a nucleus‚ mitochondria‚ and chloroplasts and are surrounded by a cell wall containing a peptidoglycan layer. They are defined by their small size and wide range of shapes. In this experiment we separated organisms in a mixed culture to study the colony morphology and physical characteristics and determine which organism was present in higher numbers‚ as determined

CHAPTER TWO Beneficial bacteria in the environment and their uses. In today’s world‚ the environment and its related issues are steadily gaining a lot of importance. Some bacteria are helpful and are used to obtain balance in the environment. It has been seen that helpful bacteria are useful in dissolving organic sludge from water‚ breaking down the growth of algae‚ reducing the various noxious odours such as hydrogen sulfide odours‚ reducing ammonia levels‚ promoting faster growth of fish in the

MANIPULATION OF BACTERIA INTRODUCTION: In this experiment that we performed‚ there were many methods that were used to help us manipulate and identify the bacteria E.coli on a MacConkey agar plate. The first part of the experiment involved the methods of manipulating‚ identifying and counting the bacteria and the second part was to find out whether the bacteria E.coli was the only type found in the given area by gram staining. E.coli was the chosen bacteria for this type of experiment. It is

a. The bacteria that causes botulism are found in soil‚ water‚ animal guts and dung. When the spores exposed to low oxygen and certain temperature‚ they produce botulinum toxin‚ able to germinate‚ metabolize‚ food sources through an aerobic respiration to produce toxin. The toxin blocks the release of acetylcholine from motor nerve endings causing paralysis symptoms. The botulism either food born‚ eating contaminated home-canned foods where the fermentation takes place. or through abrasion in the

a universal method of identifying bacteria allows for all scientists from any part of the world to identify the same species in an identical manner allowing for a precise of classification. Bacteria are distributed throughout the world in almost every conceivable habit. Bacteria are unicellular microorganisms‚ with variable shapes and nutritional needs. They lack a distinct nucleus and occur singly or in chains or clusters and form distinct colonies. Bacteria are classified on the basis of many

When writing a research paper‚ there are two main patterns that we can choose. The first style‚ MLA (Modern Language Association)‚ is widely used in conducting papers and citing sources within the humanities range and it should be double-spaced. When paraphrasing‚ quoting or summarizing‚ MLA requires citation of the author’s last name‚ the source’s title‚ and the page number. In addition to that‚ the paper must include one’s own name‚ the instructor’s name‚ and course title with the date all inserted
