Unknown Bacteria Lab Report Introduction The purpose to this lab was to identify an unknown bacteria from a mixed culture provided to us by our instructor. This study was done by applying all of the methods that have been instructed on thus far in microbiology laboratory class. Each test performed‚ provided us with some key information about the unknown organism in question and how the bacteria function. Over a two week period‚ eight prepared types of test media were provided to identify

Aim: To investigate the effect of skin sensitivity in response to cold temperature in different parts of the body by timing the maximum amount of time in which ice-pack can be held to that area. Hypothesis: If the layer of skin is relatively thin‚ the nerve response to cold will be the fastest‚ increasing the skin’s sensitivity. This therefore means that the fastest responses to cold will be in the face‚ and specifically the nose. The skin consists of 3 main layers; the epidermis‚ dermis and

Antibiotics Various families of antibiotics are used for various types of microorganisms to achieve control and assist body defenses during times of infection. Antibiotics are products of microorganisms that react with and inhibit the growth of other microorganisms. An antibiotic should be selectively toxic to pathogenic microorganisms‚ should not incite an allergic response in the body‚ should not upset the normal microbial population of various body sites‚ and should not foster the development

I. An Historical Overview of Antibiotics Allow me to begin with an historical overview of antibiotics. The antibiotics field was initiated when Paul EHRLICH first coined the term ‘magic bullet’‚ or chemotherapy‚ to designate the use of antimicrobial compounds to treat microbial infections. In 1910‚ EHRLICH discovered the first antibiotic drug‚ Salvarsan‚ which was used against syphilis. EHRLICH was followed by Alexander FLEMING‚ who discovered penicillin by accident in 1928. Then‚ in

This experiment was done by applying methods in order to identify an unknown bacterium. An unknown bacterium was handed out by the lab instructor. The methods that have been learned so far in identifying bacteria were applied to this unknown. Procedures were followed as stated in the lab manual and biochemical test handouts. The first
