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 a gram

Cellular Respiration and Fermentation: Experimenting With CO2 and Redox Reactions Julius Engel; Section 8 Abstract In this experiment‚ the subjects of study were fermentation‚ mitochondrial respiration‚ and redox reactions. In the first experiment‚ yeast was grown in various carbohydrate solutions at various temperatures. In the second experiment‚ succinate was added to various samples of a mitchondrial suspension‚ DPIP‚ and a buffer. Then after two blanks were used‚ the samples

Packed and Loose milk” This research paper is all about the awareness and acceptance of Packed and Loose milk by the people. Milk is an opaque white liquid produced by the mammary glands ofmammals It provides the primary source of nutrition young mammals before they are able to digest other types of food. The early lactation milk is known ascolostrum‚ and carries the mother ’s antibodies to the baby. It can reduce the risk of many diseases in the baby. The exact components of raw milk varies by species

Goldfish Respiration Abstract The purpose of this experiment is to design and conduct a basic scientific experiment‚ identify and control variables. Some other objectives that we learned is to write a formal hypothesis‚ identify the basic and integrated process skills of science that were used in this experiment. Also‚ we will learned the effects of temperature on goldfish respiration. This experiment will be conducted with four students ‚ one goldfish‚ thermometer‚ a stop watch‚ and a beaker

Virus and Bacteria Virus - A virus is a capsule of protein that contains genetic material. A virus cannot reproduce on its own; it must infect a living cell to grow. Bacteria - Bacteria are one-celled organisms that live on their own. They can multiply and reproduce by subdivision Bacteria and viruses cause many of the diseases we are familiar with and may sound synonymous; they are greatly different from each other. [pic] o They differ greatly in size. The biggest viruses are only as large

Biogas Anaerobic Digester Considerations for Swine Farms in North Carolina Collecting biogas from anaerobic digestion of swine manure can benefit the environment by reducing methane emissions (has potential value for equivalent carbon credits or greenhouse gas (GHG) credits)‚ and by providing energy‚ as biogas is about 60 to 70 percent methane. Methane has an energy value of about 1‚000 BTU/SCF1‚ so biogas can have an energy value of about 600 BTU/SCF. Plug-flow or complete-mix anaerobic digesters
