to develop and adjust to altering environments. That is why it is so significant to be competent to identify microorganisms. This study was conducted by applying techniques and experiments cultured in microbiology lab for the identification of the unknown microorganism. Introduction: Identification of bacteria is significant because they are not only beneficial but potentially hazardous as well. The identification of bacteria can lead to breakthroughs in healthcare regarding treatment of old and new

Unknown Lab Report April 25th‚ 2006 Introduction The purpose of this lab was to identify two unknown bacteria cultures using various differential tests. The identification of these unknown cultures was accomplished by separating and differentiating possible bacteria based on specific biochemical characteristics. Whether the tests performed identified specific enzymatic reactions or metabolic pathways‚ each was used in a way to help recognize those specifics and identify the unknown cultures

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
