Bacteria Lab Report

Abstract: Bacteria consists of a large domain of prokaryotic microorganism in which can fight of antibiotics allowing the bacteria to become antibiotic resistant. In this lab report, we discover the most effective disinfectant that would work best in killing the harmful bacterial strain, Bacillus subtilis. KB testing or disc diffusion antibiotic sensitivity testing is measured through the diameter in millimeters to find how resistant the antibiotic to the bacteria. The hypothesis of Windex fell correctly with my results but Lysol was only 4mm more sustainable then Windex. Lysol with the biggest zone of inhibition of 28mm allowing this disinfectant to kill the most Bacillus subtilis bacteria. Still, Lysol was succeeded to work, but overuse or misuse of antibiotics and also not compelling a prescribed course can allow antibiotic resistance to spread. "Everything is covered in invisible ecosystems made of tiny life forms." -Jessica Green. These tiny single-called organisms that live almost everywhere contain two types of DNA, plasmid and chromosomal. The chromosomal DNA carries most of the genetic information. Bacteria can be good by helping you with digestion,
I measured the spread of the bacteria by testing how resister the bacterial strain is to the antibiotic through the Kirby Bauer antibiotic testing. KB testing or disc diffusion antibiotic sensitivity testing was measured through the diameter in millimeters to find how resistant the antibiotic to the bacteria. Windex is a disinfectant that rejects 99.99% of destructive bacteria and the zone of the inhibition tested did fighting of bacteria proving that this kind of bacteria was not antibiotic resistance. One mistake made was using ethanol as one of the disinfectant and also having better control over the technique of the quadrants by following the aseptic isolating techniques
