absolutely vital to exercise proper lab safety any time that a person‚ including yourself‚ is in the lab. One of the most important parts of remaining safe in a lab is wearing the proper clothing and equipment‚ such as goggles and an apron. It is also very important that everyone who is eligible to participate in a lab or is present in the lab is well-versed in the basic and general rules of lab safety. It is important to follow these rules so that everyone in the lab can avoid injuries both severe and

While microbes are often viewed negatively due to their association with many human illnesses‚ microbes are also responsible for many beneficial processes such as industrial fermentation (e.g. the production of alcohol and dairy products)‚ antibiotic production and as vehicles for cloning in higher organisms such as plants. Scientists have also exploited their knowledge of microbes to produce biotechnologically important enzymes such as Taq polymerase‚ reporter genes for use in other genetic systems

the microorganism was identified as Enterbacteriaceae Enterobacter aerogenes. INTRODUCTION Microbiology is a specialized area of biology that places an emphasis on microorganisms. Several microorganisms are included in this subject‚ such as bacteria‚ fungi‚ algae and protozoa. The most important fact that should come out of microbiology is the “profound influence” that microorganisms have on the aspects of earth (Cowan‚ 2012). The objective of this project was

The purpose of the following study is to determine where the two unknown bacteria acquired in Microbiology lab should be classified in regards to temperature‚ pH level‚ and osmoregularity. It is important to classify bacteria in order to identify them. Identification of bacteria is important because they are not only useful but potentially dangerous as well. The identification of bacteria can lead to breakthroughs in healthcare regarding treatment of old and new diseases alike. Identifying bacteria
