Bacteria Prac Aim: To observe the growth of bacteria on Agar plates Hypothesis: That the bacteria will grow in colonies throughout the agar plates except for the one with the anti-biotic loop because some will fight off the bacteria. Method: (Method taken from prac sheet) Plate 1: Use the swab to cover your entire agar plate in your bacteria. You only need one swab of bacteria but be careful to cover the entire surface of your agar in a layer of bacteria. Carefully place an Antibiotic Mastring

DIFFERENT TYPES OF AGAR Mac Conkey‘s Agar plate MacConkey (also McConkey) agar is a culture medium designed to grow Gram-negative bacteria and stain them for lactose fermentation. It contains bile salts (to inhibit most Grampositive bacteria‚ except Enterococcus and some species of Staphylococcus)‚ crystal violet dye (which also inhibits certain Gram-positive bacteria)‚ neutral red dye (which stains microbes fermenting lactose)‚ lactose and peptone.

the virus from the host’s nuclease enzymes. Spikes on the envelope provide a binding site for attachment to the host. Influenza virus is an enveloped virus with many glycoprotein spikes. Viruses are larger than prions and many times smaller than bacteria. They range in size from 30 to 300 nm. Cause: The causes of the flu are from three types of influenza viruses: A‚ B and C. Human influenza A and B viruses cause seasonal epidemics of disease almost every winter. Influenza type C infections cause

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

The Role of Agarase in Agar-Degrading Bacteria Abstract Agar-Degrading (agarolytic) Bacteria is physiological class of bacteria capable of utilising agar as a sole carbon source. This ability is made available by the use of agarases - enzymes which break down agarose into oligosaccharides. This physiological class branches through genii‚ regardless of Gram Stain status or morphology. Through a review of scientific literature we can find identification methods‚ optimum conditions and the

Material Appendix B – Identifying Bacteria Bacteria identification is accomplished in a number of ways. Two common tools microbiologists use to identify unknown bacteria include dichotomous key and biochemical tests. The dichotomous key is useful when a microbiologist only needs to know which group an unknown microbe belongs to on a general level. When a microbiologist needs to identify a specific bacterium‚ biochemical tests are used. PART ONE: GENERAL BACTERIA IDENTIFICATION Review the
