This article is about public and private swimming pools being contaminated with E. coli. Chlorine is not doing its job in sanitizing the human waste in the swimming pool. Human waste seems to refuse being sanitized. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) concluded that the E. coli came from one major primary source; swimmers pooping in the swimming pool. Researchers say such contamination is due to swimmers not rinsing themselves off before going in the pool. Scientists say a person carries about

Identifying Organic Compounds Problem: Based on the color of the indicator‚ which type of organic compound will be found in each type of food? Hypothesis: If Benedict solution is added to honey‚ then it will turn. If Biuret solution is added to egg whites‚ then it will turn. If Benedict solution is added to corn oil‚ then it will turn. If Benedict solution is added to glucose‚ then it will turn. If Benedict solution is added to gelatin‚ then it will turn. If Benedict solution is added to butter

their food intake is through meat and dairy products and it’s not a lie when people say the food industry is a bunch of shady people. Past generations have been able to eat raw beef without even considering consequences like e-coli‚ but at this point in the United States e coli is the least of our worries. It is time to stand up against the food industry and make a change for the better of our world‚ and our future generations. The United States is a country where food is being mass-produced. We

METHODS In this experiment‚ plasmid lux and a control plasmid (pUC18) will be introduced into E. coli by transformation. There are four basic steps to the procedure; Preparation of competent cells (These steps should be performed by the instructor.) 1. Place a vial of CaCl2 solution and the tube of E. coli in the ice bath. 2. Using a sterile pipet‚ transfer 590µL CaCl2 solution to the tube containing 50µL of the bacteria. 3. Tap the vial with the tip of your index finger to mix the solution. 4. Incubate

ups Identifying food groups in unknown solutions Aim The aim of this experiment is to identify different food groups within several different unknown solutions. This will be carried out by placing the unknown solutions into separate test tubes and using different chemical indicators to see if any reactions occur. Each food group will act different when the chemical indicator is added‚ some will change colour while others will separate. Introduction Food is a vital source of energy that is

General information: What is E.coli? Escherichia coli‚ or commonly referred to as E.coli is a foodborne pathogen that normally inhabits in the intestinal track of humans and animals. It is the most common and wide spread infecting organism and is in the family‚ Enterobacteriaceae. Enterobacteriaceae is a large family of Gram-negative bacteria‚ meaning the bacteria appear pinkish or red. How fast and how does it spread? The main way that E.coli can spread is through food and water supply. Common

alteration of a cell‚ resulting from the intake of exogenous genetic material through the surrounding cell membrane. The purpose of this lab was to determine transformation of bacteria by testing the effect of P Vib plasmid of E. coli MM294‚ and how the color of the E. coli bacteria changes. In this lab‚ two small test tubes were given calcium chloride‚ E. coli MM294‚ and one of the tubes also received the plasmid P Vib. The test tubes were then placed in ice‚ heat shocked‚ and then a small amount
