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

TITLE: Toxicity Testing and Determining the LC50 INTRODUCTION: Our main objective for this experiment was to determine which three chemicals were going to be the most toxic to the brine shrimp by adding drops of vinegar‚ bleach and ammonia to the controlled water. We found that the vinegar was the most effective and the quickest. The ending results were very interesting when being compared to our hypothesis and we learned that some chemicals can react faster than others and each contains a different

Introduction: The purpose of the first experiment was to practice obtaining accurate and precise results by doing combustion analysis to find the amount of carbon dioxide and water released and the amount of fuel consumed. To identify the amount of carbon dioxide‚ water and burner consumed there were three equations used to find it. Equation 1 shows how much carbon dioxide was released. Mass of carbon dioxide = m2 - m1 Equation 1 was used as an experimental procedure created to help find out

colonies that are circular and moist. Microbes A are gram-negative cocci. B had moderate growth of yellow punctiform colonies that are circular and moist. Microbes B cells are gram-positive cocci. C had abundant 2mm growth of pink colonies that are circular and have a mucoid consistency. Microbes C are gram-negative rods bacilli. D had abundant growth of 2mm yellow colonies that are circular and have a mucoid consistency. Microbes D are gram-negative bacilli that gave off a fishy smell. Swarming

The purpose of this lab is to isolate a bacterial population from the normal throat flora. A streak plate method will be used to obtain a pure culture of a Gram positive coccus genus of bacteria. Several biochemical tests will be performed to aid in the identification of this unknown bacterium. Biochemical tests are a series of tests used to identify certain bacterium The various tests that are used in this lab are the catalase test‚ oxidase test‚ blood hemolytic test‚ MSA‚ blood agar‚ and PEA/ab

Abstract This experiment was carried out to perform staining methods on microbes‚ explain the mechanisms of staining‚ namely‚ simple staining‚ and learn how to use the microscope. The experiment setting was kept as sterile as possible when conducting the experiment. The microbes under the microscope were drawn out and labelled. In conclusion‚ different staining techniques are used to determine the presence of certain exterior structures of the bacteria like the cell envelope or just to identify

Introduction: The gram stain is one of several laboratory procedures that can be used to narrow down the identities of unknown bacteria. Bacteria have three different shapes; cocci‚ bacilli‚ and spirilla. Since bacteria pretty much have the same reflective index as water‚ a bacteria cell must be dyed so that these shapes can be seen.
