Designed study and lab experiments performed by investigating sources of foodborne illnesses such as Clostridium botulinum. Appropriate sampling techniques such as swabbing were used to obtain bacteria from food sources‚ soil‚ and a variety of other raw materials. The bacteria were grown and cultured on Agar plates and later Gram Stained in order to identify

CHAPTER 1 PRODUCTION 236250 TONNES PER YEAR OF ACETONE 1.0 INTRODUCTION Acetone is a clear‚ colorless‚ volatile liquid with sweer odor. It is both the simples aliphatic ketone and the most commercially important. It has a distinctive fruity or mint-like odor and a pungent taste. It is also found naturally in plants‚ tress‚ volcanic gases‚ and forest fires and as a by product of the breakdown of body fat. Nearly all world production of acetone is via cumene peroxidation‚ as a coproduct with

Lactic Acid Bacteria Amanda Perry Many persons are oblivious to the fact that when they consume certain delicious food products like yogurt‚ buttermilk or cheese‚ they are actually eating live bacterial biomass which has acidified the milk content and contains a mixture of bacterial slime layers. Perhaps it is a blessing that most people are unaware because when most hear the word ‘bacteria‚’ their first thought is of a microscopic unicellular organism that causes various types of diseases especially

Cerebral palsy is a common neural developmental condition that is typically encountered by pediatricians. There are numerous definitions of cerebral palsy‚ all of these definitions point out that cerebral palsy is a combination of several permanent but not unchangeable disorders that arise from injury to the adolescent development of the brain. Cerebral palsy consists of several disorders‚ some of which are related to the sever impairment of the motor functionality in young children‚ cerebral palsy

Identification of Unknown # 15 Abstract. One of the most fundamental differential staining techniques used in the study of bacteriology is gram staining. There are two main types of bacteria‚ gram negative and gram-positive. The purpose of this experiment was to perform a variety of tests to identify the bacteria contained in the unknown sample labeled number 15. The following are the tests that were used to identify the two different bacteria. The

Abstract This experiment was carried out to perform 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
