Hannah Melanchuk Dr. Robert Suran May 1 2013 Microbiology Abstract Over a three week time span I was able to successfully identify an unknown microorganism by combining the results of several tests. The first test was the Gram stain test which showed the microorganism was Gram positive and rod shaped. Using an Unknown Identification Flowchart‚ I proceeded to inoculate a Starch plate. In week 2‚ I analyzed the Starch plate and was able to determine that the results for Starch

Introduction It is crucial in the field of microbiology to study the morphology‚ biological activity‚ and the behavior of microbes thus the isolation of such microbes from the environment is necessary because it allows scientists to study them in close proximity. Microbial life forms are found everywhere. They are major players in biogeochemical cycling of elements and primary producers in numerous environments. There are also some microbes living inside higher forms of organisms that aid in digestion

Jessica Beckman Bio 351 - General Microbiology Concordia University‚ Irvine February 24‚ 2012 Identifying Salmonella choleraesuis using Several Microbiology Lab Techniques The purpose of this study was to determine what an unknown bacteria was using several different microbiology lab techniques including an API test‚ an oxidase test‚ a gram stain‚ a hanging drop slide‚ and morphology identification. The unknown bacterium‚ which was contaminated with Serratia marcescens‚ was isolated by

compared to gram positive organisms‚ they are consequently unable to retain the color of the crystal violet dye during gram staining (Barron‚ 1996). Two enumeration techniques were used during this part: Direct Count Procedure and Viable Count Spread Plate Procedure. The aim of the second part of the experiment was to isolate enteric coliform bacteria from the water sample and determine its identity using biochemical testing. Enteric bacteria‚ members of the Enterobacteriaceae family‚ reside in the

Abstract: The purpose of this experiment was to isolate two unknown bacteria and perform a series of selective and differential tests to correctly identify each. After the bacteria was isolated a series of differential and selective tests following the dichotomous key attached were used to identify each bacteria

A small amount was smeared over the filter paper and several drops of oxidase reagent were added and the color change was noted. Another loop-full of bacteria was added to the test tube containing 5 ml of sterile saline‚ recapped
