Biology 205 MW 2:10pm. Unknown Organism Paper The unknown organism tested in the Mesa lab was collected from in between the toes of my puppy‚ Riley. The original culture grown consisted of dozens of visibly different organisms of varying colony colors and growth patterns. I chose to test a smaller‚ red colony for my experiments. Based on its gram reaction and oxygen requirements‚ the following tests were performed to reach my presumptive ID: Test Performed Result Gram Stain + Fluid Thioglycollate

Requirements for Unknown Report You have been provided a mixed culture (a gram positive and a gram negative) from which you should have isolated each type of organism‚ described their colonies on a TSA plate‚ and described their cellular morphology. You were graded on this activity separately. After you have isolated your gram negative in pure culture you will be subjecting it to various biochemical tests and making observations about the cells‚ colonies‚ growth temperature preferences‚ etc. in

The unknown soda ash from experiment 3 was used‚ to determine the weight for each trial we used the equation of (M of HCl) x (18 ml x 105.99) / (10 x 2 x Na2CO3 ). Which was equal to (0.01472 M) x ((18 mL X 105.99)(10 x 2 X 2.428 % )= 0.6 g. To start we had to rinse the beakers‚ electrode and the stirring bar with diluted water. The sample we needed was weighted to the closest 0.1 mg which we got was 0.3 for the first trial. The sample was transferred to a 250 mL beaker and dissolved in 70 mL of

purpose of the unknown bacteria lab assignment was to select an unknown bacteria culture and‚ through a series of metabolic tests‚ identify which bacteria genus resided in the pure culture received. A nutrient broth inoculated with bacterial culture (numbered 45‚ henceforth referenced as U45) was selected and a streak plate was made to isolate a pure culture for use throughout the assignment. From the streak plate‚ several slides were made to determine the morphology of unknown 45. A Gram stain‚ used

This study was conducted by applying techniques and experiments cultured in microbiology lab for the identification of the unknown microorganism. Introduction: Identification of bacteria is significant because they are not only beneficial but potentially hazardous as well. The identification of bacteria can lead to breakthroughs in healthcare regarding
