Yeast Mutations due to Ultra-Violet Light Exposure Summary: Mutations have played one of the most important roles throughout life on Earth. Without genetic mutations there would not be the diversity of living species that we see today. Understanding how mutations work and how they are created is an important step in controlling and isolating genes for experimentation. In this experiment we tested the effects of Ultra-Violet light on growing single-celled yeast. We did this by first creating serial

to calculate and determine the optimal dosage of ultraviolet (UV) light to expose Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S. cerevisiae) to that would result in a survival rate of 20-40%. Saccharomyces cerevisiae commonly referred to as baker’s yeast is a single-celled eukaryote. Yeast is capable of growing as either a haploid or a diploid cell. The diploid cell can reproduce mitotically or sporulate‚ a process initiating meiosis and forming an ascus with four spores (Sacchromyces‚ 2014). Haploid cell reproduces

antibiotics were mixed with yeast cells‚ the antibiotics decreased the yield of yeast cells. However‚ this is unexpected result because yeast is not a bacteria and therefore antibiotics should have no effect on them. The hypothesis that was tested was that antibiotics decrease the yield of yeast cells. In general the materials that were used in this experiment were a clean hemacytometer‚ a pipette‚ a solution of yeast with no antibiotics (culture A)‚ and a solution of yeast

Mangifera indica‚ Annona muricata‚ and Citrofortunella microcarpa fruits ferment fastest. Three treatments were made: 200 mL. of Mangifera indica fruit juice fermented with 20 yeast cells; 200 mL. of Annona muricata fruit juice fermented with 20 yeast cells; and 200 mL. of Citrofortunella microcarpa fruit juice fermented with 20 yeast cells. The start date of fermentation was recorded as well as the original specific gravity of each treatments. The end of fermentation of each treatment were watched for

IDLY SCIENCE REASONS FOR IDLY AND DOSAI MAAVU NOT GETTING PROPERLY FERMENTED 1) Both batters need Bio activity. So if there is not enough bacteria/Fungus/Yeast present in the batter‚ the maavu will not ferment or will not ferment properly. 2) If you are using chlorinated‚ Iodised water or bacteria free water or Ozonized water in your house‚ you will not be able to get proper fermentation in batter as all these chemicals have residual disinfection property.(except Ozone) . 3) If

MICROBES AND FOOD – A ‘RELATIONSHIP’ Microbes and food have always had a love-hate relationship. Food producers have learned to harness their power -- and sometimes for good use. There is no doubt that organically grown fruits and vegetables are superior in flavor. Now‚ despite arguments to the contrary made by food manufacturers‚ they may well be more nutritious for a variety of reasons. There are always studies available to prove any point‚ especially one

Agents Of Spoilage 1.Microorganism A microorganism (from the Greek: μικρός‚ mikros‚ "small" and ὀργανισμός‚ organismós‚ "organism") or microbe is a microscopic organism‚ which may be a single cell[1] or multicellular organism. The study of microorganisms is called microbiology‚ a subject that began with Antonie van Leeuwenhoek’s discovery of microorganisms in 1675‚ using a microscope of his own design. On 8 November 2013‚ scientists reported the discovery of what may be the earliest signs of life
