which will ultimately increase dissolved oxygen. Under some toxic conditions‚ the dissolved organic matter will be transformed into additional microbial biomass plus carbon dioxide. When the microbial growth is completed‚ under ideal conditions microbes will aggregate and form a stable structure which can then be removed (Cooke‚ n.d.). When the untreated waste is dumped into a pond or fast-moving river‚ there is less dissolved oxygen and the waste content is

Soil Microbe Lab Antibiotics are chemicals produced by substances that kill or inhibit the growth of bacterial cells (Hurney et al 2013). These microbes‚ such as bacteria found in the soil‚ may seem like they would be harmful to the human body because they attack cells‚ however they are very efficient at only attacking the bacterial cells. Actinomycetes are one of the more common groups of these soil microbes known to produce antibiotics. Antibiotics work because they target specific aspects

Abstract The primary focus of this lab was on microscopy and simple stains. Crystal violet and Carbol fuchsine‚ simple staining components‚ were used to stain the slide in order to see the different microbes in order to determine their cellular shape and identify unknown ones by comparing. Introduction Bacterial cells are usually colorless because cytoplasm‚ for the most part‚ is transparent. Since the bacteria are colorless‚ it is almost essential to add a stain to make the bacteria more visible

Grams staining method and reliability of this method. According to me‚ Grams staining process is a simple technique that assists in recognition of etiological agent and therefore can be called as one of the most significant staining practices in microbiology. Though‚ Gram is concerned that the staining process developed by him is imperfect because not all bacteria can be stained by it‚ but in my opinion‚ when we pour ethanol over the slide to wash away the dye then only definite bacteria can retain

The science of microbiology is all about microorganisms‚ what they do and how they work. Microorganisms are ubiquitous‚ and are a very important part of life everywhere since they have been around for billions of years. The two main themes associated with microbiology are (1) having an understanding of the nature and function of the microbial world‚ and (2) being able to apply that understanding of the microbial world so that the benefits to the Earth and humans are known(6).
