Isolation of Bacteria in our Physical Environment Introduction: The purpose of the lab is to apply what has been learned so far in Microbiology‚ and use it to collect and examine microbial species from the physical environment. The physical environment around the lab will be utilized to find out the variety of different microbial species growing in and around the lab. This investigation will help in preparation for the individual projects that will be done at the end of the semester. Materials

To observe the growth of different bacteria species in term of structures and its morphology based on different chemical substance applied. 3. To observe physiological and immunological properties utilized by different species of bacteria.

Background: In Jane Horack’s article “Staphylococcus epidermidis”‚ S. epidermidis is described as “gram-positive cocci bacteria that are part of the normal flora on the skin and nasal passages.” The article goes on to say that the species was originally named Staphylococcus Albus by microbiologist Rosenback in 1884. When viewed under a microscope S. epidermidis will appear in chains‚ pairs‚ or grape-like clusters (Horak 1). Taxonomically‚ the species S. epidermidis falls in the genus Staphylococcus

difference between bacteria‚ viruses‚ fungi and parasites are: Bacteria are single celled organisms that can rapidly multiple themselves every 10 minutes up to 10 times each bacterial cell‚ but they do not live or reproduce in a human cell. When threatened they will make a copy of their DNA to enable them to come back to life in the right conditions. They are able to survive in most extreme living conditions including with and without oxygen‚ there are various types of bacteria such as Cocci/Coccus

Abstract: Bacteria consists of a large domain of prokaryotic microorganism in which can fight of antibiotics allowing the bacteria to become antibiotic resistant. In this lab report‚ we discover the most effective disinfectant that would work best in killing the harmful bacterial strain‚ Bacillus subtilis. KB testing or disc diffusion antibiotic sensitivity testing is measured through the diameter in millimeters to find how resistant the antibiotic to the bacteria. The hypothesis of Windex fell correctly

Livja Koka Anaerobic Bacteria In this experiment the purpose is to seek understanding between an organism and its use of oxygen. Oxygen is a very important part of the organisms’ survival. Oxygen has a tendency to form very reactive by-products inside a cell. These by-products create havoc by reacting with protein and DNA‚ thus inactivating them. Cells that are able to live in the presence of oxygen have evolved enzymes to cope with H2O2 and O2- and thus are not inhibited by O2. Also many anaerobes

The Fear of The Unknown The short stories of Ben Loory‚ Stories for Nighttime and Some for the Day‚ exhibit numerous postmodern qualities through literary context‚ language and themes. One of these reoccurring themes within the collection is the concept of fear of the unknown. Three stories exemplary of this theme are “The Magic Pig‚” “The Fish in the Teapot‚” and “The Snake in the Throat.” In every one of these stories chosen there is an appearance of an object. One character is tortured by the
