Title: The use of plasma treatment in Textile Finishing. Plasma technology is explored in the field of textile processing as an unconventional process. It is a “dry” technology and is intrinsically ecological and environment friendly. The conventional wet treatments applied in textile processing for fibre surface modification and others are associated with many constraints. These treatments mainly concern with energy‚ cost and environmental issues. Application of Plasma technology at low temperature

10/11/13 Microbial Growth Background Information: This lab was conducted in order to understand basic differences among differential and selective media‚ while recognizing how each media is used to isolate and identify microorganisms (Wistreich‚ 2003). The first microorganism analyzed was Staphylococcus epidermidis. This organism is gram-positive‚ single celled‚ arranged in grape-like clusters‚ and cocci in shape (Bukhari‚ 2004). S. epidermidis is approximately 0.5 to 1.5 micrometers in diameter

Autumn White Biology 258-05 November 26‚ 2012 Unknown #19 Enterbacteriaceae Enterobacter aerogenes ABSTRACT The objective of this report was to identify an unknown microorganism through several differential media tests. Over the course of a couple weeks‚ ten tests were performed. First‚ a gram stain was performed‚ indicating the bacterium was gram negative. An aerotolerance test determined that the bacterium was a facultative anaerobe. Next‚ a negative result in the

Microbiology Module 02 Homework Assignment Use the information presented in this module along with additional outside research to answer the questions: 1) Compare and contrast prokaryotic and eukaryotic. a) Prokaryotes and eukaryotes are two types of cells that are very different but share some certain properties such as methods of reproduction‚ protein synthesis‚ an organized metabolism‚ response to stimuli‚ and plasma membranes. One significant difference is that prokaryotes are without a cell

In addition to this‚ the microbiome has brought into being within the digestive system such as the stomach as well as the intestines‚ however‚ it is likewise discovered within the mouth‚ oesophagus as well as in the skin. Similarly‚ it has been stated by Flint (2012) that it is the whole bacteriological makeup and there exist distinctive microorganisms discovered within each and every portion

American Society for Microbiology. The Microbial World The microbial world is a realm of life made up of microorganisms and viruses. Microbiology is the branch of biological sciences concerned with the study of these microbes. Microorganisms are unicellular organisms (capable of existence as single cells)‚ too small to be seen with the naked eye. Among all forms of life on the earth‚ microorganisms predominate in numbers of species and in biomass‚ but their occurrence is generally underappreciated

the most numerous type of microorganism found in the rhizosphere of the soil. They produce secondary metabolites which are capable of producing antibiotic which eventually inhibit or kill bacteria. The rhizosphere region of the soil is a highly favorable habitat for the proliferation‚ activity and metabolism of numerous microorganisms. The magnitude of this area depends on the plant and the size of the roots that the plant possesses. Bacteria are among the microorganisms living in the rhizosphere

several causes of oral diseases ranging from chemical burns as a result of aspirin or tobacco use to hormonal disturbances from simply going through puberty or becoming pregnant. One cause of great concern is microorganisms. From bacteria to viruses‚ there are many pathogenic microorganisms that may be found in the oral cavity. As a dental assistant‚ we should be capable of identifying an abnormal condition in the mouth and making sure to inform the dentist about it. A virus that is common and
