WRITE AN UNKNOWN LAB REPORT IN MICROBIOLOGY GENERAL Unknown reports in microbiology are written in scientific format. Scientific writing is written differently from other types of writing. The results of the exercise or experiment are what are being showcased, not the writing. The purpose of scientific writing is not to entertain, but to inform. The writing should be simple and easy to understand. There is a specific style that must be followed when writing scientific reports. Scientific
Introduction The purpose of this lab was to identify unknown bacteria cultures using various differential tests, and my unknown bacteria is #17. The identification of these unknown cultures was accomplished by separating and differentiating possible bacteria based on specific biochemical characteristics. Whether the tests performed identified specific enzymatic reactions or metabolic pathways, each was used in a way to help recognize those specifics and identify the unknown cultures. The differential tests
Kelsey Nolte Microbiology Otero Junior College Mr. McClure Fall Semester 2014 Unknown Report Introduction The definition of Microbiology is the branch of science that deals with microorganisms. Microorganisms are very small organisms that require the use of a micro scope to visualize them, which are bacterium, viruses, fungi (the most common) and others which are not so common such as parasites. Microorganisms are an essential element to the field of microbiology because it allows researchers in
Mishayla O Moffitt Tube Number: 2 Unknown Organism: Enterobacter aerogenes Introduction: According to the “Microbiology Laboratory Manual,” lab 27 focuses on the family Enterobacteriaceae, this is one of the largest families of bacteria (Wong et al., n.d.). Also all of the members are gram-negative, anaerobe straight rods and can commonly be located in mammal’s intestines (Wong et al., n.d.). All the members Enterobacter aerogenes throughout this report will be referred to as, E. aerogenes
Name: Danielle Title: Unknown Lab Report Introduction: There are many reasons for identifying an unknown bacterium. The reasons range from medical purposes, such as determining if the unknown could cause ailments in living things or knowing what microorganisms are needed to make antibiotics. The experiment was done by applying methods in order to identify an unknown bacterium. An unknown bacterium was handed out by Dr. Honer. The appropriate tests were prepared and applied. The
Unknown Lab Report Unknown #27 Rona Hakaj 12/08/2014 Dr. David Mwangi Microbiology Spring /2014 3305-04 Introduction: The purpose of this lab was to identify an unknown microorganism using lab techniques. The importance of identifying microorganisms is essential to the survival of humans, expansion of modern day medicine and improvement of quality of life. In 1884, Hans Christian Gram designed a differential staining technique to identify bacteria that would change the future of microbiology
Maura Gongora 12th December, 2014 MCB 3020L- Section 018 Unknown #16 Abstract This report contains the background information on gram positive and gram negative bacteria, which will aid in understanding the use of specific laboratory experiments to distinguish between the two types of bacteria. Included are the materials and methods used to identify the gram positive and gram negative bacteria and methods which also differentiate between microbes of each group. The implications of the methods of
human body and life as a whole. With that being said, upon beginning this lab, the purpose of this study was to identity and investigate an unknown microorganism by applying the methods that were previously learned and practiced in the microbiology laboratory portion of class. METHODS AND MATERIALS Upon beginning the unknown lab, I was given the opportunity to choose an unknown broth tube. This tube contained our unknown microorganism and it was my job, based upon the testing methods learned throughout
Gram Negative Salmonella Typhimurium (#16) Lab Report Heather A. Rogers Nov. 9 2016 Biol 2460 University of Texas at Arlington Abstract This lab experiment was done for the purpose of learning how to determine a gram negative bacterium based on multiple tests learned throughout the semester. My gram negative unknown bacterium given to me was Salmonella typhimurium based off of the following tests; Triple Sugar Iron Agar (TSIA), Sulfate Indole Motility (SIM), Methyl Red (MR), Voges-Proskaur (VP)
