Unknown Lab Report April 25th‚ 2006 Introduction The purpose of this lab was to identify two unknown bacteria cultures using various differential tests. 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

Introduction: This report required the successful identification of two unknown substances through experimental testing on a selective collection of materials and equipment. For the first substance (which will be either tin or aluminium)‚ two tests shall be done to ensure a decisive and educated decision onto what the substance is. The first step utilizes the dramatic difference in density between the two substances by measuring the volume and mass of the unknown substance. By calculating the volume (through

Background: In Jane Horack’s article “Staphylococcus epidermidis”‚ S. epidermidis is described as “gram-positive cocci bacteria that are part of the normal flora on the skin and nasal passages.” The article goes on to say that the species was originally named Staphylococcus Albus by microbiologist Rosenback in 1884. When viewed under a microscope S. epidermidis will appear in chains‚ pairs‚ or grape-like clusters (Horak 1). Taxonomically‚ the species S. epidermidis falls in the genus Staphylococcus

Identifying the Unknown Bacteria: Bacillus cereus Brittany Moy Coastline Community College Abstract Bacillus cereus is a Gram-positive‚ facultative aerobic‚ spore-forming‚ rod-shaped bacterium that is widely distributed among the environment. Introduction 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

Antony R 9:00Am-11Am Unknown Number 94 Unknown Results Streptococcus salivarius The first step in my unknown identification was to carry out a gram stain to observe the cell shape and arrangement. My unknown turned out to be gram positive bacteria cocci shaped with long chain cell arrangement. The unknown was gram positive because the cells stained blue-violet ‚this indicate that my unknown has ability to retain crystal violet-iodine after alcohol application on the cells which is a gram

an Unknown Compound Purpose: The purpose of this experiment was to separate a mixture of two or more unknown compounds and identify them based on their melting point and reactivity with an acid or a base. Compound studied/Reactions: The organic solvent used in this experiment was methyl t-butyl ether (MTBE‚ 2-methoxy-2-methylpropane). The unknown that dissolved in the MTBE‚ but was insoluble in water. MBTE is very volatile and flammable. It was determined in the experiment that the unknown was

Laboratory Exercise #5 Identification of Fungi Fungi‚ like bacteria‚ may be useful in industry but also problematic. Many produce important products including foods‚ chemicals‚ enzymes and pharmaceuticals such as antibiotics and hormones. Molds‚ however‚ in particular‚ are also common contaminants in industry. It is important to be able to recognize and identify them‚ therefore‚ in the laboratory. In today’s laboratory session you will examine some common molds and attempt to identify them.

The purpose of the following study is to determine where the two unknown bacteria acquired in Microbiology lab should be classified in regards to temperature‚ pH level‚ and osmoregularity. It is important to classify bacteria in order to identify them. Identification of bacteria is important because they are not only useful but potentially dangerous as well. The identification of bacteria can lead to breakthroughs in healthcare regarding treatment of old and new diseases alike. Identifying bacteria
