Abstract In vitro studies show that tea tree oil can be used as a topical methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) eradication regimen in a laboratory setting. This report has been researched using a wide range of journals and internet sources to find out whether tea tree oil can be used as an alternative to Mupirocin for those suffering from MRSA colonisation. The journals that were searched contained useful information about tea tree oil as an antiseptic‚ however‚ many of the studies

1. Introduction Since the discovery of plasmid‚ various methods have been developed to isolate plasmid DNA. All the methods have one common and important target of isolating plasmid DNA of high quality and quantity in less time. These methods are not completely safe because of use of toxic chemicals compounds. The developed protocol for plasmid extraction is based on the alkaline lysis method of plasmid preparation (extraction at pH 8.0) with slight modifications. Cell lysis reagent sodium dodecyl

in order to see the different microbes in order to determine their cellular shape and identify unknown ones by comparing. Introduction Bacterial cells are usually colorless because cytoplasm‚ for the most part‚ is transparent. Since the bacteria are colorless‚ it is almost essential to add a stain to make the bacteria more visible. Once stained‚ cell morphology can be observed. Stains are solutions that contain a solute called a chromophore dissolved in a solvent. A chromophore is the color possessing

INDIVIDUAL BACTERIAL COLONIES ON SOLID MEDIA Robert Koch developed a method for isolating pure cultures on solid media in 1883. To this end he added agar (a solidifying agent) to liquid nutrient broth; the nutrient broth supports the growth of a wide variety of microorganisms while the agar provides a solid substrate on which bacteria can be mechanically diluted and therefore isolated as independent colonies representing different bacterial species. The isolation of independent bacterial species from

to man. Microorganisms can be prokaryotic—the bacteria or eukaryotic—the algae‚ protozoa or fungi. While viruses are acellular they are also studied in the scope of microbiology because they are small and because they infect cells. While most bacterial are unicellular they can also exist in colonial or multicellular forms. In this laboratory exercise you will examine the ubiquity and diversity of various microbes that are present in the environment or inhabit the human body. Most bacteria that

Abstract: The objective of the experiment is to learn how to use a microscope while viewing various types of bacteria cultures. Prepared slides are used to view bacterial cultures under a microscope that would normally be invisible to the naked eye. Bacterial shapes and arrangements or morphology are observed in prepared slides and fresh yogurt culture. Purpose: The experiment is meant to determine the shapes of bacteria under different magnifications when using a microscope; 10X‚ 40X‚ and 100X

Introduction It is crucial in the field of microbiology to study the morphology‚ biological activity‚ and the behavior of microbes thus the isolation of such microbes from the environment is necessary because it allows scientists to study them in close proximity. Microbial life forms are found everywhere. They are major players in biogeochemical cycling of elements and primary producers in numerous environments. There are also some microbes living inside higher forms of organisms that aid in digestion

few micrometres in length‚ bacteria have a wide range of shapes‚ ranging from spheres to rods and spirals. Bacteria display a wide diversity of shapes and sizes‚ called morphologies. Bacterial cells are about one tenth the size of eukaryotic cells and are typically 0.5–5.0 micrometres in length. Intracellular structures: The bacterial cell is surrounded by a lipid membrane‚ or cell membrane‚ which encloses the contents of the cell and acts as a barrier to hold nutrients‚ proteins and other essential
