Canada Spees Lab 2 Prokaryotes Purpose: Performing this lab will help me better understand the characteristics of prokaryotes and compare them with eukaryotes. This lab will also help me visualize and better understand the physical description‚ and the different types of bacteria and how they stain‚ whether it be gram positive or gram negative. Hypothesis: If I read the textbook and use the resource websites‚ then I will be able to better understand prokaryotes and describe the structural characteristics

of the people of Nsukka‚ Nigeria. Fish samples collected were identified and bacterial load of the samples determined using agar plate method. Differentiations and characterizations of various isolates were based on biochemical reactions and gram-staining technique. Frozen mackerel fish (Scomber scombrus) was used for the study. Invitro assay result revealed that the samples were predominantly contaminated by three bacteria species viz: Staphylococcus aureus‚ Escherichia coli and Lactobacillus plantarum

Radiography is the visualisation of the pattern of distribution of radiation. In general‚ the radiation consists of X-rays‚ gamma (g ) or beta (b ) rays‚ and the recording medium is a photographic film. For classical X-rays‚ the specimen to be examined is placed between the source of radiation and the film‚ and the absorption
