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). This lab specifically

Introduction The purpose of this project was to detect which organism we had in our unknown mixed culture tube by running a series of experiments to detect which specific Gram negative organism we had. To detect your gram positive from the mixed culture was given as extra credit points also. A Gram stain was performed and isolation streak plate in order to isolate and observe the unknown organism. Before the series of test‚ a dichotomous key had to be written up in order to know what steps

used to prove the identity of the bacteria. The unknown bacteria was #9. After performing the tests it is determined that the unknown bacteria is Escherichia coli. 3. Methods: All tests were performed using the aseptic technique to assure the cultures were pure and not contamination was present. The inoculation loops and straight wire stab needles were placed over the flame of a Bunsen burner and heated until red hot (sterile) then cooled before placing them into the bacteria to prevent the killing

UNKNOW BACTERIA LAB REPORT UNKNOWN 36 Introduction The purpose of this lab was to identify two unknown bacteria from a mixed culture. The reason for identification of unknown bacteria was to help students recognize different bacteria through different biochemical tests and characteristics. This is important in the medical field because identification of unknown bacteria can help treat a patient by knowing the contributing source of a disease. Also knowledge of different bacteria helped others

Lab12-Medical Microbiology- Part1– Differential Media/Biochemical Tests‚ Sp2012 (Set all of your margins to ½”) Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to help you become a little familiar with some of the tests that can be typically performed in a clinical or research lab facility. These tests may help in determining a particular pathogen’s growth needs. There are several sections to this lab. Find each section and complete the “Preparing for Class” sections.

There are several types of staining through which the bacteria can be identified based on the color and shape. The staining methods used in the lab are Gram Staining‚ Capsule Staining‚ Endospore Staining‚ and Acid Fast staining. One of the most significant method of staining

Escherichia coli Microbiology Lab NAS 185-14L Introduction In this lab experiment we did several test to determine what our unknown bacteria was. To determine this we recorded the results of how the bacteria reacted to different media. Depending on the results of each test we could narrow down the different bacteria to determine what our unknown is. This experiment will also determine if our bacteria is a fermenter of sugars and if it is catalase positive. If the bacteria is
