Dues to its important role in society the study of microorganisms‚ Microbiology‚ has become widespread. Microorganisms collected for study can be grown and visualized in both liquid and solid growth media. The purpose of the media is to provide all of the necessary nutrients for microorganisms to live and reproduce. Although

The methods that have been learned so far in identifying bacteria were applied to this unknown. Procedures were followed as stated in the lab manual and biochemical test handouts. The first procedure that was done was a gram stain followed by a streak of the unknown on a TSA plate in order to determine the gram

WRITE AN UNKNOWN LAB REPORT IN MICROBIOLOGY GENERAL Unknown reports in microbiology are written in scientific format. Scientific writing is written differently from other types of writing. The results of the exercise or experiment are what are being showcased‚ not the writing. The purpose of scientific writing is not to entertain‚ but to inform. The writing should be simple and easy to understand. There is a specific style that must be followed when writing scientific reports. Scientific

Grams staining method and reliability of this method. According to me‚ Grams staining process is a simple technique that assists in recognition of etiological agent and therefore can be called as one of the most significant staining practices in microbiology. Though‚ Gram is concerned that the staining process developed by him is imperfect because not all bacteria can be stained by it‚ but in my opinion‚ when we pour ethanol over the slide to wash away the dye then only definite bacteria can retain

Lab Report #1: Observing Bacteria Microbiology Abstract: This lab exercise familiarized the student with the use of a microscope by observing and identifying various different slides under the microscope. The student practiced observing the given slides under the 10x‚ 40x‚ and 100x (oil immersion) objective lenses‚ which allowed for the identification of the different organism’s shapes and sizes. Purpose: The aim of this exercise is to equip the student with the knowledge

Abstract The primary focus of this lab was on microscopy and simple stains. Crystal violet and Carbol fuchsine‚ simple staining components‚ were used to stain the slide in order to see the different microbes in order to determine their cellular shape and identify unknown ones by comparing. Introduction Bacterial cells are usually colorless because cytoplasm‚ for the most part‚ is transparent. Since the bacteria are colorless‚ it is almost essential to add a stain to make the bacteria more visible
