04/29/2013 G-Unknown code Gram Positive-Micrococcus luteus Gram Negative- Klebsiella pneumoniae Unknown Paper The unknown project was a very good realization of me and my partner going out by our selves. The very first day of the Unknown project I was acquainted with Denise who was very friendly and was very nice as far as assisting me in the project. The first day we were introduced too various different forms of the unknown such as broth‚ Blood agar plate‚ MSA plate

ANALYSIS OF BACTERIA GROWTH Abstract Bacteria can be found everywhere on the earth. Bacteria are single-celled organisms that lack a nucleus‚ mitochondria‚ and chloroplasts and are surrounded by a cell wall containing a peptidoglycan layer. They are defined by their small size and wide range of shapes. In this experiment we separated organisms in a mixed culture to study the colony morphology and physical characteristics and determine which organism was present in higher numbers‚ as determined

Bacteria and Archaea Bacteria and Archaea All single-celled organisms in the Bacteria and Archaea domains are referred to as prokaryotes. Prokaryotes are organisms whose genetic material is not contained within a nuclear envelop. These cells are profoundly important to the environment‚ medicine‚ and industry. (Postlethwait & Hopson‚ 2010‚ p. 196) Bacteria and Archaea are similar in shape‚ size‚ and appearance. They are both found occurring as rods (bacilli)‚ spheres (cocci)

this lab was to determine the density of water and an unknown liquid. Density is defined as the mass of a substance divided by its volume. It is an intrinsive property of matter and is used to specifically characterize substances. III. Procedure: 1.We massed an empty 10mL graduated cylinder to the nearest .01g. 2.Then‚ we filled the graduated cylinder with 4.0-5.0 mL of distilled water‚ 3.massed it to the nearest 0.1 ml and 4. recorded the data. Then to determine the density of the unknown liquid;

Identification and Recreation of Unknown White Compound #643p November 13‚ 2012 INTRODUCTION: The identity of the unknown solid white compound is determined and verified through a series of tests which uncover physical and chemical properties necessary for identification. A new sample of the same compound is then created to further prove the accuracy of the identification. The compound must be identified in order to be used. For example‚ KCl is used in medicine‚ scientific applications‚ and

diagnostic bacteriology Dr.T.V.Rao MD Dr.T.V.Rao MD 1 Identification of Microorganisms • For many students and professionals the most pressing topic in microbiology is how to identify unknown specimens. • Why is this important? • Labs can grow‚ isolate and identify most routinely encountered bacteria within 48 hrs of sampling. • The methods microbiologist use fall into three categories: ♣Phenotypic- morphology (micro and macroscopic) ♣Immunological- serological analysis ♣Genotypic- genetic

Lab: Flame Test Purpose: to determine the ID of 2 unknown substances Background Information: Every atom consists of a nucleus with tiny electrons whizzing around it. The further away from the nucleus they are‚ the more energy the electrons have. If a metal atom is heated‚ the electrons get enough energy to jump higher away from the nucleus‚ they become “excited”. When they fall back closer to the nucleus (back to their ground state)‚ they give off this extra energy as light. Why is the
