Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus albus Some bacteria’s require a certain amount of light in order to function properly and there fore survive. Escherichia coli is found in the gut and intestines of mammals. Staphylococcus albus is generally a skin dwelling bacteria Aim: To test whether the amount and type of light that the bacteria’s E.coli and S.albus are subject to causes changes in their growth rates and habits.

E. coli Escherichia coli‚ more commonly known as E. coli‚ are a large group of bacteria. It lives in the digestive tracts of humans and also animals. There are many different types‚ such as enterohemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC) which causes bloody diarrhea. Some types cause urinary tract infections. One other specific type that is real common is called E. coli O157:H7. This type can cause severe anemia‚ kidney failure‚ or even death.

proteins that are capable of deactivating or exporting the antibiotic (Liu‚ 2012). Over time the bacteria E. coli became resistant to the antibiotics‚ and once resistant then the medicine (penicillin) has no effect (Doughari 2012). The purpose of the experiment is to understand the processes by which genes can be inserted into plasmids‚ also to gain some experience in cloning genes via E. coli‚ lastly to understand the medicinal and other implications of gene transfer among organisms (Hoot‚ Wimpee

Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus Staphylococcus aureus is an important and common pathogen in humans. It is found in the nose or on the skin of many healthy‚ asymptomatic persons (i.e.‚ carriers) and can cause infections with clinical manifestations ranging from pustules to sepsis and death. Most transmission occurs through the contaminated hands of a person infected with or carrying S. aureus. MRSA infections frequently are encountered in health-care settings (Lowy‚ 1998). A common

Escherichia coli was discovered by German Bacteriologist Theodore von Escherich in 1885(quote). It is commonly known as E. coli and 0157:H7; E. coli found in the human intestinal tract and is found in multiple forms. E. coli is rod shaped and the size of two microns to one micron. Widely known for the deadly stain found in feces and meat. The pathogen is still a major instrumental issue in human health and is easily infectious with contaminated sustenance. E. coli is gram-negative bacilli tested

The E Coli can also lead to death if left untreated. There are many symptoms with the E Coli. And one of the most obvious symptoms is having a bloody diarrhea (Not all forms of E Coli have the same symptoms). The symptoms can be easily confused with other disease since it is such a common symptom. The
