thirty times more than tap water. Bottled water is tested for many things including coliforms‚ heterotrophic plate count‚ and in some cases‚ yeast and mold‚ and Pseudomonas sp. Other testing may include pH‚ total dissolved solids‚ conductivity‚ turbidity‚ and ozone residual. Another reason bottled water is better than tap is the amount of jobs created. Bottled water companies need to hire people to test the water and make sure it is Florida Department of Agriculture (FDA) approved. Companies also

effects on The Reef include: • Coastal or island-based tourism development. Ongoing pollution from discharge of treated sewage and stormwater and loss or alteration of natural coastal areas can elevate levels of nutrients‚ other pollutants and turbidity changing the make up of water and balance of life within The Reef. • Marine-based tourism infrastructure. Infrastructure (e.g. pontoons and mooring chains) can cause damage to coral. • Shipping and boating. Anchors dragging along the

Towra Point Report By Julian Burst Introduction This report is based on the Towra Point Nature Reserve‚ in Kurnell. On our excursion‚ we got detailed information on various bits of information about organisms such as plants like mangroves‚ and animals such as the Soldier Crab and many species of birds and spiders. Things such as the types of Trophic Interactions show the levels of species and to clearly show what species is a stronger predator then the other. With the use of mathematical formulae

Identity of Cyanobacterial Toxins Cyanobacterial toxins are toxins produced by cyanobacteria‚ or blue-green algae. They include neurotoxins (e.g.‚ anatoxins)‚ hepatotoxins (e.g.‚ microcystins)‚ skin irritants and other toxins. Both hepatotoxins and neurotoxins are produced by cyanobacteria commonly found in surface water supplies and therefore appear to be of most relevance to water supplies at present.1-3 However‚ the neurotoxins are relatively unstable and‚ as such‚ are not considered to be as

based ecosystems = aquatic ecosystems. (Ponds‚ lakes‚ rivers‚ oceans‚ wetlands‚ coral reefs). Differences between aquatic ecosystems primarily arise from variations in the amount of nutrients dissolved‚ salinity‚ depth of sunlight penetration (turbidity) and average temperature. Ecosystems rarely have distinct boundaries. Zone of transition = ecotone. An

Trichilia roka gum was purified and analyzed and subjected to physicochemical‚ spectroscopic and rheological analysis. Results obtained from physicochemical analysis indicated that the gum is mildly acidic‚ ionic and exhibited properties that are closely related to most useful food and pharmaceutical gums. The gum has rich content of fibre‚ major elemental ions and other useful minerals. GCMS and XRF studies on the gum also revealed that the gum has several industrially useful minerals. The viscosity

Unable to read the Gram Stain at first it was later confirmed that Unknown #7 was a gram negative bacteria. When introduced to Starch Unknown #7 produced no zone of clearing showing that it did not contain the enzyme amylase. When introduced to the Lipid Unknown #7 did produce a zone of clearing indicating that it did contain the enzyme lipase. When introduced to Casein Unknown #7 produced no zone of clearing indicating that it did not contain the enzyme protease. When streaked onto the Gelatin‚
