MICROBIOLOGY 3444-007 Gram Negative Unknown Unknown Bacteria #14 LeNaiya Kydd 4/2/2014 Abstract In order to be able to identify the unknown organism that was given to us‚ we had to conduct a number of different tests. These biological tests are used because they help us be able to identify the properties of the unknown we have and be able to compare our observed results with actual results of all the potential organisms. When all of the data of the test are put together it is easy to

Bacteria‚ such as Vibrio natriegens‚ are single cellular‚ microscopic microorganisms. Bacteria grow by cell division‚ mainly by a process called binary fission‚ where two cells arise from one single cell (Madigan et al.‚ 2015). In bacteria such as Vibrio natriegens‚ who are curved-rod shaped microorganisms‚ they elongate to almost twice their own size and form a dividing wall in which splits the single cell into two daughter cells (Madigan et al.‚ 2015). There are four phases to bacterial cell growth:

Date report submitted: June 18‚ 2015 Title: Lab Techniques and Measurements PURPOSE: The purpose of this experiment is for the students to get a better knowledge with the laboratory tools and techniques. This experiment taught me how to convert between SI units and standard American units of mass‚ length‚ temperature‚ volume and time as well as how to measure the units. Students become proficient in laboratory techniques such as measuring temperature and volume and calculating within them. Procedure:

Unknown Bacteria Lab Report Introduction The purpose to this lab was to identify an unknown bacteria from a mixed culture provided to us by our instructor. This study was done by applying all of the methods that have been instructed on thus far in microbiology laboratory class. Each test performed‚ provided us with some key information about the unknown organism in question and how the bacteria function. Over a two week period‚ eight prepared types of test media were provided to identify

Isolation of exosomes from human serum The initial volume of serum for the experiments was 4 mL per sample. The samples were diluted with an equal volume of PBS (AppliChem‚ St. Louis‚ MO) to decrease the viscosity. The diluted serum samples were centrifuged at 2‚000×g for 10 min and 10‚000×g for 30 min at 4 °C to remove dead cells and cell debris. The supernatant was transferred into Ultra-ClearTM tubes (Beckman Coulter‚ Indianapolis‚ IN) and centrifuged at 100‚000×g using a Beckman Optima XL-70

Determining the Unknown Microorganism from a Mixed Culture Mylah Ferland‚ Rivier University MICRO 206‚ March 16th‚ 2016 Introduction: An unknown bacterium experiment‚ this experiment was done to discover what bacterium was in a mixed culture sample. This experiment worked with enteric bacteria which are members of the Enterobacteriaceae and live in the intestinal tract (Willey et al.‚ 2014). Also found in Willey et al (2014) is some characteristics of enterics such as they all degrade sugars by

French Fries vs Bacteria Introduction After the Chipotle scandal of having E. Coli‚ I wondered what other bacteria can possibly be on foods that we consume. In addition‚ eating my french fries the day after I bought it‚ I wondered how long it could be until there was bacteria growing on the french fries. These two experiences in the last few months triggered me to become interested in what bacteria is and how harmful it can be. In order to do this investigation‚ one must study various types of french

Lab 11 Methodology By using aseptic‚ a little cultured bacteria was inoculated on the TSA agar. A quadric streak was making. Inoculation loop was heated and keep it cold for a while before the next quadratic streak. Six agar plates were observed for 24 hour at temperature of 30ºC. Choose one from the dense colony and make a sub-culture on the new agar plate. The step was repeated to get a single colony‚ which is pure colony. a) Sequestration of bacteria from fish organs Methodology

Introduction to Chemical Systems in the Laboratory’1. Specifically‚ 1.90 grams of KCL was weighed in a 250ml beaker and dissolved in 25 ml of deionized water. This solution was then quantitatively transferred to a 250ml volumetric flask. Proper technique is needed for quantitative analysis. This transfer was done to ensure that there was no detectable KCl left in the beaker. After transferring the solution add 3 drops of AgNO3 to the rinsed beaked to check the completeness of the transfer. Now take
