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

Lab Report - Microbes Aim: To investigate four areas of the school and to find out which of the four have the most microbes. Areas to Sample: 1. Girl’s locker room (Senior school) 2. Girl’s locker room (Elementary school) 3. Boy’s locker room (Senior school) 4. Boy’s locker room (Elementary school) Hypothesis: We predict that the boy’s locker room in the senior school will have the most microbes. First of all‚ there are more people using our locker rooms in the Senior School

staining methods on microbes‚ explain the mechanisms of staining‚ namely‚ simple staining‚ and learn how to use the microscope. The experiment setting was kept as sterile as possible when conducting the experiment. The microbes under the microscope were drawn out and labelled. In conclusion‚ different staining techniques are used to determine the presence of certain exterior structures of the bacteria like the cell envelope or just to identify the basic shape and size of the microbe. In this experiment

My Points So basically‚ Ubiquitous Computing is a practice of enhancing the use of computers by making a lot of computers accessible throughout the physical environment but they’re basically invisible. In other words‚ it means getting computing off the desktop. Ubiquitous computing refers to a new genre of computing in which the computer completely permeates the life of the user. First were mainframe computers‚ which where shared by a lot of people. Right now we’re in the personal computing era

Lab 1 – Ubiquity of Microbes Bacteria are the most widely distributed organisms in the biosphere. They are found in all different types of soil‚ water and even in the bodies of other living organisms. Every single place that humans have explored on the Earth‚ have shown to contain microbes. Bacteria are living organisms and like all living organisms‚ they require energy and carbon sources in order to metabolize and reproduce. And like all living organisms they respond to changes in their environment

upside down at room temperature for 24–72 hours. 6. Observe the dish and count the number and types of colonies. Record the results in Data Table 1: Environmental Colony Formation‚ in the Lab Report Assistant section. 7. Soak the dish in a 10%-bleach solution for 1 hour and then discard it. Part iii: Microbes in the Soil 1. Choose an environmental site to collect a soil sample. Then use a new sample cup to collect a soil sample. 2. Pour distilled water into the cup‚ so the water sits just above

TFMB1001 24/10/12 Aim of the experiment: Prove that microbes are everywhere Materials required: Agar dishes NA‚ Petri dish S.D.A.(sucrose dextrose)‚ swabs‚ cotton bud‚ labels and marker. Procedure: (A) – Isolate microbes from me (bacteria) 1- We marked‚ divided by 4 and labeled the bottom of our Petri dish. 2- On NA we swabbed areas such as: chicks‚ rings‚ underneath of a watch‚ sink and disinfectant trigger 3-We closed

4300/6938 Biomolecules Microbes in Gut Increase Fat Absorption You may think you have dinner all to yourself‚ but you’re actually sharing it with a vast community of microbes waiting within your digestive tract. A new study from a team including Carnegie’s Steve Farber and Juliana Carten reveals that some gut microbes increase the absorption of dietary fats‚ allowing the host organism to extract more calories from the same amount of food. Previous studies showed gut microbes aid in the breakdown

of an unknown microbe by observing its reactions to a barrage of chemical and physical tests. Different microorganisms react in different ways‚ due to their function‚ digestibility‚ morphology‚ chemical make-up and other details. By observing the responses to these tests performed in a particular sequence‚ some can be eliminated as possibilities and others require further investigation. Materials and Methods: A stock culture‚ labelled 25‚ was stored at room temperature (in the lab desk). A transfer
