MICROBIOLOGY What is the purpose of general growth media‚ selective media‚ and differential media? Give examples of each. General Purpose Media General Purpose media is designed to grow most organisms and do not contain growth inhibitors. Standard Methods Agar and Blood Agar Bases are examples of general purpose media. Differential Media Differential media contain a component that allow an observable change when a specific chemical reaction takes place. Simmons Citrate Agar is an example

Strategy Instruction for making hot tea The first step is to discuss our ‘strategy’ or process. At this time I activate prior knowledge. We have a group discussion about kitchen safety‚ what we have learned thus far and then we move into the purpose of learning and we talk about when and why people drink tea; as well we now have an opportunity to see which we prefer hot tea or iced tea. Then we move right into step 2; which is modeling the process for my students. I model each of the following

CH4 Prokaryotic Cells No nucleus Plasma membrane Selective permeability lets molecules pass. Enzymes for ATP production. Photosynthetic pigment on folding (on chromatophores or thylakoids). Leakage occurs if damaged by alcohols‚ ammonium‚ and polymyxin antibiotics. Phospholipid bilayer‚ peripheral proteins‚ integral protein‚ transmembrane protein‚ sterols‚ glycocalyx Movement across Membranes Simple diffusion: Movement of solute from high concentration to low Facilitative diffusion: Solute

Having the ability to collect and identify unknown microorganisms is vital in health and medicine. This capability is important for a variety of reasons‚ such as knowing the causative agent of disease‚ knowing if the microorganism obtains any beneficial properties and knowing the correct microorganism to use to create a successful antibiotic. Implementing the experimental methods learned thus far in the microbiology laboratory allowed an unknown bacterium to be identified as a result of this study

New performance management system and the performance improvement process Performance Measurement Systems: 1.0 Introduction There are 3 charts in this section Chart 1.1: This is a general introductory chart which has been tailored for measurements to demonstrate that a balanced scorecard is an integral part of business planning and strategy This chart emphasizes that strategy implementation must be top-down and a good measurement system is a powerful tool for achieving this. It also shows how

Microbiology Laboratory Report Identification of Unknown Bacteria 6O BIO 251-7H1 Gram Stain Summary: Out of 28 Unknown microorganisms‚ slant 6O was randomly selected‚ and subjected to testing in order to identify it’s species. Seventeen of the unknown bacteria were classified as Gram-negative bacilli: Corynebacterium pseudodiphtheriticum‚ Enterobacter aerogenes‚ Eschirichia coli‚ Flavobacter capsulatum‚ Helicobacter pylori‚ Klebsiella pneumonia‚ Klebsiella oxytoca‚ Proteus hauseri‚ Proteus

What Is Microbiology? Microbiology is the study (logy) of very small (micro) living (bio) things. Microbiology is the study of microorganisms. These "bugs" include: bacteria (that’s the Latin plural for bacterium); viruses (that’s the non-Latin plural for virus - virii sounds weird‚ so I don’t say it); and‚ fungi (that’s the Latin plural for fungus - which by now you have guessed‚ or already knew‚ and may not be all that interested to know‚ anyway). Microbiology is actually made up of several
