Doyle and Schoeni (1984) reported 37 0C as the optimum temperature for growth of Escherichia coli 0157:H7 in Trypticase Soy Broth. This grew poorly in the temperature range of 44 to 45.5 °C which is generally used for recovery of E. coli from foods. Bettelheim (1998) designed Rainbow Agar O157 for the isolation and identification of EHEC. In this medium E. coli O157 was characterised by black colonies whereas O113 and some other EHEC strains were mauve‚ red or pink and indistinguishable from other

Maura Gongora 12th December‚ 2014 MCB 3020L- Section 018 Unknown #16 Abstract This report contains the background information on gram positive and gram negative bacteria‚ which will aid in understanding the use of specific laboratory experiments to distinguish between the two types of bacteria. Included are the materials and methods used to identify the gram positive and gram negative bacteria and methods which also differentiate between microbes of each group. The implications of the methods of

Jody Kaur Pure Cultures Lab 1/31/13 Introduction : Pure cultures are made of only one type of organisms and can be used to study their properties. A method used to isolate pure cultures is making a steak-plate‚ which is a dilution process in which culture is spread over an agar plate in a certain manner. Using a loop rod‚ culture was taken from the tube and dragged across area 1 several time‚of the agar. The agar was then turned 90º‚ and the loop was flamed and cooled. Taking some culture

IDENTIFYING GRAM POSITIVE COCCI As mentioned in Exercise 8‚ “Identifying Gram Negative Rods”‚ identifying bacteria is a common activity in the microbiology lab. Like the game Clue™‚ each time you gather a piece of information to solve the mystery‚ you gather some information that supports some identities and eliminates others from contention. In the lab‚ the process continues as you gather more information until only one microbe remains and all others have been eliminated as possibilities. Thus

The wild type and the mutant type strains of Halobacteria were used in this experiment to examine the phenotypic differences against each strain’s genotypes. The mutant strain (KBT-1) did not possess gas vesicles‚ which decreased its ability to float to the surface. The lack of gas vesicles in the mutant strain made the colonies a red color. The wild type strain (NRC-1) had gas vesicles and appeared a pink pigment color. Growth on the agar allowed one to examine the specific colonies. Inoculation

Unknown Organism Report Unknown Organism # 4 Klebsiella pneumonia Klebsiella pneumonia has a rod gram stain with the agar slant cultural characteristics being slimy‚ white‚ somewhat translucent‚ raised growth. It is small gram-negative coccobacilli that can cause lobar pneumonia. The litmus milk reaction is acid‚ gas‚ and curd with a variable reaction. Klebsiella can grow either in the presence or absence of oxygen because of its nature of being a facultative anaerobe. Oxygen is a preferred energy
