Experiment 21: Salmonella and food contamination Purpose /Objective Objective: To test salmonella in spinach sample over five lab periods. Food contamination of salmonella can cause serious illness. Only small numbers of salmonella need to be found for a food product to be considered contaminated. Tests used Pre-enrichment- lactose broth Selective enrichment broth- with Tetrathionate Brilliant Broth Selective Plating- Brilliant Green Agar Isolation of salmonella conformation- is preformed

Enzymes Lab Report Inroduction In this lab we explore an enzymes activity and how it can be affected by changes to its environment. An enzyme is a protein and is a catalyst to chemical reactions. It helps accelerate reactions by lowering the activation energy‚ which is needed for reactions in cells to progress at a higher rate. Activation energy is the minimum amount of energy needed for a chemical reaction to occur‚ yielding products from a given set of reactants. (Unit 7: Enzymes lab) Products

Unknown Lab Report Dr. Nathan Cahoone Microbiology 204 December 9‚ 2010 Introduction There are many reasons for knowing the identity of microorganisms. The study and test 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 which I was using unknown #25. Results Unknown #25 had the following morphology on a streak plate: medium sized butyrous cream colored colony. Gram-staining was utilized

flour‚ sugar‚ tablespoon vanilla‚ half vegetable oil and half margarine‚ egg‚ little bit salt‚ baking powder. Next‚ we combined sugar and butter in a bowl‚ and we mixed the ingredients with a hand whisk until there were no lumps. Added vanilla‚ and eggs‚ and we stirred thoroughly. Then we prepared the dry ingredients of our recipe. We mixed all dry ingredients together (flour‚ baking powder and salt). Once we both mixtures completed‚ we slowly combined them

experiment was to examine and to compare the microstructure and hardness of different carbon content metals‚ starting from 0.2%C‚ 0.4%C‚ 1.0C% content metals with different heat treatment and cooling mechanism. The experiment was started from the preparation of the samples. At the first step the samples was prepared by cutting in appropriate size by the abrasive cutter. After cutting of the specimens‚ the experiment was held heat treatment under 900Cº for one o’clock. For 0.4%C different

Determining the Catalytic Properties of the Enzyme Peroxidase Extracted from a Turnip Under the Conditions of Temperature‚ pH‚ Boiling and Competitive Inhibitors By Robin Caserta BIO 101 September 30‚ 2013 ABSTRACT The enzyme‚ peroxidase‚ extracted from a turnip was tested for its efficiency in binding to its substrate and its stability under several conditions. To do this‚ we tested effects on peroxidase activity‚ first‚ with different amounts of the enzyme‚ next at temperatures of

For information on how this assignment will be graded‚ please visit the Course Information sectionChlorophyll and Accessory Pigments A pigment is any substance that absorbs light. The color we see comes from the wavelengths of light that reflect. Chlorophyll‚ the green pigment common to all photosynthetic cells‚ absorbs all wavelengths of visible light except green. The green reflects back to our eyes

Stoichiometry lab 1 Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to find the limiting reactant‚ also to find the percentage yield and percentage purity of the reaction that happens between Calcium Chloride and Sodium Carbonate. The other purpose was to know how the reaction can be balanced and created. Hypothesis: In this lab we are going to see a precipitation reaction. This is a reaction where two soluble salts Sodium Carbonate and Calcium Chloride are added together and the result is the precipitation
