UNKNOW BACTERIA LAB REPORT UNKNOWN 36 Introduction The purpose of this lab was to identify two unknown bacteria from a mixed culture. The reason for identification of unknown bacteria was to help students recognize different bacteria through different biochemical tests and characteristics. This is important in the medical field because identification of unknown bacteria can help treat a patient by knowing the contributing source of a disease. Also knowledge of different bacteria helped others

Phelps‚ Biology 205 MW 2:10pm. Unknown Organism Paper The unknown organism tested in the Mesa lab was collected from in between the toes of my puppy‚ Riley. The original culture grown consisted of dozens of visibly different organisms of varying colony colors and growth patterns. I chose to test a smaller‚ red colony for my experiments. Based on its gram reaction and oxygen requirements‚ the following tests were performed to reach my presumptive ID: Test Performed Result Gram Stain +

these pathogens and their related epidemiology has become increasingly more important. The purpose of this study was to identify an unknown bacterium in a controlled laboratory environment over a 5 week period. Utilizing a variety of differential testing and staining methods learned in the microbiology course‚ students were to determine the identity of an assigned unknown organism. Observations were made and recorded each week to narrow down the scope of identification. Data has been presented in

On November 11‚ 1921‚ the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier was established in order to remember the men and women and at least give credit to the people who fought for our country but couldn’t identify them. I should be chosen for the wreath laying at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier because I want to show them my absolute sincerest gratitude towards them. There are no words to explain how much obligation I have for all the soldiers who have fought for my freedom. This is important to me because I would

Unable to read the Gram Stain at first it was later confirmed that Unknown #7 was a gram negative bacteria. When introduced to Starch Unknown #7 produced no zone of clearing showing that it did not contain the enzyme amylase. When introduced to the Lipid Unknown #7 did produce a zone of clearing indicating that it did contain the enzyme lipase. When introduced to Casein Unknown #7 produced no zone of clearing indicating that it did not contain the enzyme protease. When streaked onto the Gelatin‚

Experiment H: Identification of an Unknown Organic Compound The objective of this lab was straightforward. We were given an unknown compound and we were to perform an IR spectroscopy and as well as NMR spectroscopy. With the IR spectroscopy‚ I was able to name the functional groups I have on my compound and further confirmed my assumptions by looking at the NMR spectroscopy after. The unknown number I was given was number 203. The molecular weight of the compound was 121. From the molecular weight

A Comparative Essay between “Disabled” and “An Unknown Girl” Moniza Alvi reflects on India as her hand is hennaed by “an unknown girl” “in the evening bazaar”. The predominantly upbeat mood of this poem contrasts with the pessimistic mood in “Disabled” written by Wilfred Owen‚ a soldier in the First World War‚ stating his anti-war view through a poem on the life of a young soldier “sewn short at elbow”‚ crippled by war. In his poem‚ the difference between past and present allows Owen to reveal

MIC 230 Unknown Identification Report The objective of this experiment was to identify an organism from a mixture of two unknown bacterial species. In order to accomplish this‚ I first plated my unknown mixture on Tryptic Soy Agar (TSA)‚ Columbia Naladixic Acid (CNA)‚ and MacConkey’s Agar (MAC) plates. After 48 hours of incubation‚ it was unclear that two different bacterial colonies had grown on my TSA plate. Only one type of colony was evident. However‚ it was apparent that I had successfully
