Student name: Christopher Bowdoin Date: Thursday‚ November 01‚ 2012 Soldiers of the Tomb of the Unknown General Purpose: To inform Specific Purpose: To inform my audience about the soldiers who guard the Tomb of the Unknown Central Idea: Since 1937‚ the Tomb of the Unknown has been guarded 24/7 by an elite group of soldiers. INTRODUCTION I. Attention Material A. What where you doing at 0500 this morning? B. Lets imagine it is 0500 in Washington

the Unknown Bacteria: Bacillus cereus Brittany Moy Coastline Community College Abstract Bacillus cereus is a Gram-positive‚ facultative aerobic‚ spore-forming‚ rod-shaped bacterium that is widely distributed among the environment. Introduction The reason for identification of unknown bacteria was to help students recognize different bacteria through different biochemical tests and characteristics. This is important in the medical field because identification of unknown bacteria can

In the unknown identification labs‚ we have identified our unknown as Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is Gram negative and rod shaped that we found to be motile in the lab. Our strain of P. aeruginosa formed colonies that were round in shape and had scalloped margins on nutrient agar. On our agar slant‚ the P. aeruginosa colonies had a filiform appearance on the edges. I think we correctly identified our unknown as P. aeruginosa because we performed several different tests‚ eleven

spectrometry. We will do this by making 2‚ 4 a DNPH derivative and checking the melting points. Theory: By Using specific methods of compounds detection‚ we can match an unknown compound with a known compound because similar compounds will display similar characteristics. In this experiment‚ identifications of the unknown ketone was accomplished using thin layer chromatography‚ melting point‚ and NMR spectrometry. Thin layer chromatography is very quick but sensitive way of determining the components

Title: Observing Bacteria and Blood- Lab #1 Purpose: Being able to learn how to correctly use a microscope and the oil immersion lens to be able to see the prepared slides. Also to learn how to prepare my own yogurt and blood slides. Procedure: First‚ set up the microscope. Clean the ocular lenses and objectives with lens paper. Then pace the prepared e slide on the stage and make adjustments. Turn the rotating nosepiece until the 10x objective is above the ring of light coming through the slide

an Unknown Compound Purpose: The purpose of this experiment was to separate a mixture of two or more unknown compounds and identify them based on their melting point and reactivity with an acid or a base. Compound studied/Reactions: The organic solvent used in this experiment was methyl t-butyl ether (MTBE‚ 2-methoxy-2-methylpropane). The unknown that dissolved in the MTBE‚ but was insoluble in water. MBTE is very volatile and flammable. It was determined in the experiment that the unknown was

I believe that the Unknown Soldier deserves just as much appreciation. The Wreath Ceremony would be an amazing honor to participate in and honor the Unknown Soldier and all this Soldier has given to protect us. This is truly an honor for whoever is chosen‚ I personally want to participate in the Wreath Ceremony because

The unknown carboxylic acid’s melting point was 108°C according to the Mel-Temp machine. The melting point is the temperature at which a solid precipitate changes into its liquid form upon heating. The melting point of benzoic acid‚ the aromatic carboxylic acid was 122°C. Thus‚ the product contained impurities which caused the solid to melt at a lower temperature than the actual temperature. Pure solids typically melt at higher temperatures while impure solids melt at lower temperatures. This is

At the beginning of the semester‚ samples of bacteria were obtained from various sources. Two bacterial colonies were isolated from plates that were incubated in the lab and these bacteria became the basis for this project. The bacterial cultures were maintained and used for various physiological‚ cultural‚ and biochemical tests and observations over several weeks. The purpose of culturing bacteria over half the course of the semester was to learn various techniques used in microbiology labs and

The first test conducted on unknown bacteria 32 was the Gram stain. From this stain‚ unknown 32 was found to be a Gram-positive cocci. This test eliminated all possible Gram-negative bacteria‚ Gram-positive rods and Gram-positive spirillium. Next‚ the endospore test determined whether or not the Gram-positive bacteria contained endospores. With the use of malachite green‚ steam‚ and safranin it was found that unknown bacteria 32 did not contain endospores. This eliminated Gram-positive cocci Sporosarcina
