our skills we have learned in the lab to identify two unknown organisms. PROCEDURE I was given unknown #76. I performed the streak plating method with my unknown organisms. To perform this exercise I needed a TSA plate and labeled the bottom of it with my name‚ group number and organism. I also divided the bottom into three sections. After that‚ I sterilized my inoculating loop using the bunsen burner flame. After letting the loop cool‚ I reached into my unknown test tube with my loop and grabbed

1. Title: Double unknown identification of a mixed culture of Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria 2. Author: Nick Fiore‚ University of Kansas‚ Biology 402‚ Fall 2014 3:00pm room 6040 3. Abstract: The purpose of this experiment was to isolate two unknown bacteria and perform a series of selective and differential tests to correctly identify each. After the bacteria was isolated a series of differential and selective tests following the dichotomous key attached were used to identify each bacteria

Unit 6 Lab Report 1. Objective: To find the percent composition of water in an unknown hydrate. 2. Materials: Goggles‚ apron‚ evaporating dish‚ hot plate‚ and stirring rod 3. Procedure: get the mass of a evaporating dish‚ put a sample of the hydrate onto the evaporating dish and mass the dish with hydrate. Put the dish with hydrate on the hot plate on high heat. Break up any clumps that form during the heating process. Observe any color

Discussion The possible identity of the unknown organisms in the mixed culture was limited to bacteria that we had worked with previously in lab. Initially a Gram stain was conducted in order to distinguish the unknown bacterium as a Gram-positive and/or a Gram-negative organism (Lancaster and Bennett‚ 2012; Kellenberger‚ 2001). Based upon the results‚ both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria were observed in the unknown mixed culture (Table 1 and Table 2; Kellenberger‚ 2001). In order

| Gram Negative Unknown | Biology 3444-006 | | Lena Wallace | 11/7/2011 | | Abstract: The purpose of this lab was to identify an unknown bacteria culture using differential tests. The identification of the unknown culture was accomplished by identifying the bacteria based on its specific metabolic characteristics and morphology. It is suggested that culture 11 is a sample of Enterobacter aerogenes. Introduction: This experiment was centered on metabolic and biochemical testing

Microbiology UNKNOWN LAB REPORT Kateryna Petrakova INTRODUCTION Microorganisms cause a great amount of diseases. For healthcare providers it is very important to be aware of what organisms are pathogenic and cause a disease and‚ therefore‚ to find an appropriate treatment. Different microorganisms require various environments in order to replicate and to become dangerous for a person’s health. An integral part of any medical treatment is to be able to recognize and
