Antibiotic Lab Report By: Sierra Toll Hour: 6 Title: The effects of antibiotics on the growth of Escherichia Coli Problem: How do antibiotics affect the growth of E coli? Hypothesis: If Penicillin is applied to the bacteria‚ then the zone of inhibition will be larger. Background: The purpose of this lab was to see how effective a certain antibiotic is to kill E coli. The lab tested three antibiotics‚ Penicillin‚ Erythromycin‚ and Neomycin. The zone of inhibition‚ which is the amount of space

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

poorest results. Material and Methods: 1. Get 4 deep petri dishes and label them 1‚ 2‚ 3‚ and 4. Fill dish 1 about 2/3 full with distilled water. Fill the other 3 about 2/3 full with 0.2% NaHCO3 solution. Set these aside for later. 2. Pour about 100 ml of 0.2% NaHCO3 solution into a flask with a side arm. 3. Get three or four spinach leaves and cut 40-50 disks with a cork borer. Do not include the large veins in the disks that you make. Stack the leaves so you can cut through them all and cut

Cardio Vascular System The Heart The heartis a muscular pumping organ located medial to the lungs along the body’s midline in the thoracic region. The bottom tip of the heart‚ known as its apex‚ is turned to the left‚ so that about 2/3 of the heart is located on the body’s left side with the other 1/3 on right. The top of the heart‚ known as the heart’s base‚ connects to the great blood vessels of the body: theaorta‚ vena cava‚ pulmonary trunk‚ and pulmonary veins. Circulatory Loops There are

Enzyme B produced the most maltose at a high temperature (100 ºC) and an acidic pH. Enzyme C produced the most maltose at 37 ºC (body temperature) and a pH of 7 (neutral). Conclusion In a prior lab‚ it was given that the enzyme Aspergillus oryzae (fungus) works best at warm temperatures and an acidic pH‚ porcine (pig) works best at body temperature (37 ºC) and

Ph Lab Report Bryon Kim 123013 B(2) Biology Background information/Research PH paper (litmus paper) determines how acidic or how basic a substance is. The paper changes color accordingly to color code on the pH scale. The pH scale starts from 0 to 14. The lower the number the more acidic it is. Zero is the most acidic‚ and 14 is the most basic while 7 is the neutral number for example water. Examples of an acid is lemon juice or multi purpose cleaner. Examples of a basic substance is shampoo or liquid soap

Introduction The purpose of this lab was to identify unknown bacteria cultures using various differential tests‚ and my unknown bacteria is #17. 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 differential

Photosynthesis and the Amount of Light _______________________________________________________________________ I. Introduction Photosynthesis the process where plants use sunlight (energy) to synthesize foods forming the products carbohydrates and water (H20 + CO2 + Light CH2O + O2). For photosynthesis to take place they need water‚ carbon dioxide and light and chloroplasts. Light is absorbed inside he thylakoid

For the preparation of the filtrate solution at the beginning of the class our Instructor‚ Marshall Douglas added about four to five strawberries in the blender along with 100 ml of detergent/ enzyme/ salt solution. They were blended until thoroughly homogenized if foaming occurred more detergent solution was added to prevent it. Then the blended solution was poured into a beaker and left to incubate at 60C for 15 minutes. Also‚ the mixture solution was cooled on ice for 5 minutes and filter through
