Many types of projects are possible when you are able to count bacteria. For example‚ you could count the bacteria in drinking water‚ fresh milk‚ old milk that is slightly sour‚ buttermilk‚ yogurt‚ mud puddle‚ lemonade‚ and many other things. Or you may want to know how fast Chlorox kills bacteria. If you add some Chlorox to a culture and count the surviving bacteria at suitable intervals you can plot killing the killing curve and determine whether the killing is single hit or higher order. It will

experiment is to determine the unknown DNA plasmid using restriction enzymes and conducting electrophoresis finally comparing the resulting fragments with the known restriction map. In this lab‚ it succeeds in showing the fragments. In this report we will discuss the‚ results‚ limitations and possible errors. Introduction In biology restriction enzymes are used in several ways to modify and manipulate DNA molecules. One common use is to compare pieces of DNA from one that is unknown‚ with fragments of DNA

Anaerobic respiration in Bacteria Like humans and other animals‚ bacteria need to breathe. Anaerobic bacteria basically mean bacteria that respire anaerobically. All living cells need to respire in order to release energy for vital cell activities. Anaerobic respiration is respiration in the absence of oxygen‚ hence anaerobic bacteria does not breathe at all. The purpose of respiration is to provide the cell with the appropriate molecules for creating energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate

cause bubbling (catalase-negative organisms will not). This test is good for distinguishing between Gram-positive cocci in chains (catalase negative) versus Gram-positive cocci in clusters (catalase positive). The coagulase test is used to differentiate Staphylococcus aureus from coagulase-negative staphylococci. The test uses rabbit plasma that has been inoculated with a staphylococcal colony. The tube is then incubated at 37 degrees Celsius for 1½ hours. If negative then continue incubation

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

Antibiotic Resistant Bacteria A better understanding of the use of antibiotics would help prevent the reality of antibiotic resistant bacteria evolving to the point of human extinction. Antibiotic resistance is a natural process‚ stronger bacteria survive and multiply. Even though antibiotic resistance is a natural process‚ it happens faster when antibiotics are used irresponsibly. Through use of media‚ personal responsibility and research‚ our species could help deter further antibiotic resistance

30 February 2014 Antibiotic Resistant Bacteria: What is it‚ how to prevent it and who it affects? In the United States alone‚ about 23‚000 people die from antibiotic resistant infections yearly. It is also one of the top 15 most dangerous illnesses in the country (United States House of Representatives). Antibiotic resistance is when bacteria develops a different response to an antibiotic that is its ancestor bacteria. Slight changes in bacteria enable the antibiotic to work and successfully
