This analysis was done by utilizing all of the proper methods taught thus far in the microbiology laboratory for the identification of two unknown bacteria. An unknown labeled as number 3 was given out by the lab instructor. The methods that have been lectured and absorbed pertaining to identifying

the microorganism was identified as Enterbacteriaceae Enterobacter aerogenes. INTRODUCTION Microbiology is a specialized area of biology that places an emphasis on microorganisms. Several microorganisms are included in this subject‚ such as bacteria‚ fungi‚ algae and protozoa. The most important fact that should come out of microbiology is the “profound influence” that microorganisms have on the aspects of earth (Cowan‚ 2012). The objective of this project was

While microbes are often viewed negatively due to their association with many human illnesses‚ microbes are also responsible for many beneficial processes such as industrial fermentation (e.g. the production of alcohol and dairy products)‚ antibiotic production and as vehicles for cloning in higher organisms such as plants. Scientists have also exploited their knowledge of microbes to produce biotechnologically important enzymes such as Taq polymerase‚ reporter genes for use in other genetic systems

Domains of Culture: Sustenance and Health “Super size me!” These are words that have become all too familiar and comfortable in our “American” culture. In our modern world with increasingly cheap‚ high calorie food (example‚ fast food — or “junk food”)‚ prepared foods that are high in things like salt‚ sugars or fat; it is no wonder that obesity has increased rapidly in just the past few decades. I’d like to discuss how the food that we are prone to‚ and our increasingly sedentary lifestyle

Systems Biology Systems biology involves the study of an organism as one single system. Instead of analysing all the individual components that make up a cell‚ the cell is instead viewed as an interacting network of genes‚ proteins and biochemical reactions and these are studied as a whole. In 20th century‚ molecular biology was focused upon. A ‘reductionist’ approach was followed‚ in which the individual components‚ such as the cell nucleus or sugar metabolism‚ were studied in isolation. However

Grams staining method and reliability of this method. According to me‚ Grams staining process is a simple technique that assists in recognition of etiological agent and therefore can be called as one of the most significant staining practices in microbiology. Though‚ Gram is concerned that the staining process developed by him is imperfect because not all bacteria can be stained by it‚ but in my opinion‚ when we pour ethanol over the slide to wash away the dye then only definite bacteria can retain
