experiment is to create a genomic library of Vibrio DNA and clone the lux operon by making Recombinant DNA and transform into another organism‚ E. Coli. Chromosomal DNA of vibrio fischeri was first extracted and digested with restriction enzyme Sal I‚ then ligated with the vectors and transformed into the E. Coli cells. A few white colonies indicating the E. Coli cells took up the hybrid plasmids were observed on the plate but no glowing colonies were detected. The lux operon was not successfully cloned

It was observed that the antibacterial inhibition zone increased from CMZH I to CMZH III against all three bacterial strain where OMMT content has been increased from 5 to 15 wt % respectively. The increase in the inhibition zone from CMZH I to CMZH III could be due to the presence of antimicrobial quaternary ammonium salt of OMMT (Mondal

Introduction:The objective throughout the gram staining experiment was to classify bacteria through their chemical nature as well as the physical structure of their cell walls. Through this experiment one would be able to observe either a thick or thin layer of peptidoglycan by the appearance of the bacteria staining either gram-positive blue-purple or gram-negative pink. Question: Is there a subsequent effect of the bacteria when decolorizing with alcohol? Hypothesis: If there is either a removal

qualitative tests for taxonomic identification. The culture did appear homogenous throughout the testing period and is currently retained by Northern Michigan University’s department of Microbiology. We suggest that culture 16 is an example of Escherichia coli. Background: Techniques used were in accordance with NMU Professor Dr. D. Becker’s lab manual (ISBN 0-390-53911- 2; McGraw Hill). Changes in protocol or interpretation are noted where they were implemented‚ but strict adherence to the manual

Explain the structural similarities and/or differences among Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria as well as their isolation and identification using serological‚ biochemical‚ and molecular techniques. 2. Identify the functions of the bacterial cell wall. 3. Identify the extrinsic and intrinsic parameters that affect bacterial growth

Chapter 1 The Problem Introduction Today’s technological innovation and medical advances gave birth to formulation of synthetic drugs used to treat respiratory infections‚ urinary tract infections‚ diarrhea‚ arthritis and other diseases. These pharmaceuticals are costly and to a point‚ inaccessible to many Filipinos. These may also pose adverse effects like nausea‚ dyspnea‚ and diarrhea. Researchers are challenged to produce natural medicines‚ which could be lower in cost and more synergistic

Lab Report: Antibiotic Evaluation by the Kirby-Bauer Method Introduction Chemical antimicrobial agents are chemical compounds capable of either inhibiting the growth of microorganisms or killing them outright. Those which are taken internally to alleviate the symptoms of or promote healing from disease are called chemotherapeutic drugs‚ and among these is a class of compounds called antibiotics. In order for a chemotherapeutic drug to be classed as an antibiotic‚ it must be produced by

Procedure Have three petri dishes prepared with blood agar‚ and three test tubes with 100 milliliters of milk. Label three test tubes‚ “A‚” “B‚” and “C.” With a toothpick‚ add a small amount of the E. coli specimen to tube “B"; shake the test tube to mix throughly. For test tube “C‚” add the same amount of E. coli and five millimeters garlic juice. Shake the test
