This project’s purpose is to find the effects of UV light on Staphylococcus epidermidis‚ furthermore recognized as staph infection. Staph infection is an infection usually acquired on the skin that can promote fever‚ nausea‚ pain‚ boils‚ and can lead to MRSA‚ which can lead to death. Because there is no cure for staph infection‚ this experiment called for research on clinical trials. A clinical trial was established that used blue light therapy to delay and kill the growth of staph infection. Coincidentally

UNKNOW BACTERIA LAB REPORT UNKNOWN 36 Introduction The purpose of this lab was to identify two unknown bacteria from a mixed culture. 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 help treat a patient by knowing the contributing source of a disease. Also knowledge of different bacteria helped others

MANIPULATION OF BACTERIA INTRODUCTION: In this experiment that we performed‚ there were many methods that were used to help us manipulate and identify the bacteria E.coli on a MacConkey agar plate. The first part of the experiment involved the methods of manipulating‚ identifying and counting the bacteria and the second part was to find out whether the bacteria E.coli was the only type found in the given area by gram staining. E.coli was the chosen bacteria for this type of experiment. It is

An essential component of this mandate is the delivery of a safe‚ reliable and efficient water supply to satisfy the demand of all sectors of the economy. Whilst over the ensuing years there has been a steady increase in demand‚ there has not been the commensurate investment in infrastructure and the identification of alternative

Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus albus Some bacteria’s require a certain amount of light in order to function properly and there fore survive. Escherichia coli is found in the gut and intestines of mammals. Staphylococcus albus is generally a skin dwelling bacteria Aim: To test whether the amount and type of light that the bacteria’s E.coli and S.albus are subject to causes changes in their growth rates and habits. To test whether the growth rates and habits of the bacteria’s E. coli

Skin infections are common‚ but the bacteria can spread through the bloodstream and infect distant organs. Skin infections may cause blisters‚ abscesses‚ and redness and swelling in the infected area. The diagnosis is based on the appearance of the skin or identification of the bacteria in a

microorganisms in our planet‚ bacteria. Bacteria lives everywhere‚ in air‚ hot springs‚ and in our bodies. Some bacteria are harmful and some of them are helpful. Biologists use helpful bacteria in several ways. In my essay‚ I will focus on some uses of bacteria in medicine‚ environment‚ and industrial. Bacteria contains many distinctive characteristics that makes it very important for the environment. It is considered one of the basic decomposers in the environment because bacteria analyzes dead organisms

State the principle of triple beam balance A beam balance measures mass as opposed to weight‚ so the mass you weigh will be the same on the moon as it is on earth. Gravity is taken out of the equation‚ unlike a spring balance that measures weight and would measure an article to be 1/6 of the weight on the moon as it would be on earth using the same spring balance that relied on gravity. The principle is that of moment‚ or turning force/torque)‚ calculated by force x distance. Fundamentally‚
