There are several sections to this lab. Find each section and complete the “Preparing for Class” sections.

To conduct your laboratory exercises, use the Laboratory Manual that is available in the classroom. Laboratory exercises on your CD may not be updated.

To conduct your laboratory exercises, use the Laboratory Manual located under Course Content. Read the introduction and the directions for each exercise/experiment carefully before completing the exercises/experiments and answering the questions.

This document is not meant to be a substitute for a formal laboratory report. The Lab Report Assistant is simply a summary of the experiment’s questions, diagrams if needed, and data tables that should be addressed in a formal lab report. The intent is to facilitate students’ writing of lab reports by providing this information in an editable file which can be sent to an instructor.

The purpose of this lab was for the student to get involved with his or hers new lab kit as well as being able to know, identify and use each other tools provided in the kit. Another key learning aspect of this lab is to teach the student how to measure properly the many units in the SI system. I will be using laboratory dilutions, measurements, and weights to then calculate using algebraic formula.

The objective of a lab notebook in Micro 310L: Medical Microbiology Lab is to “record your laboratory activities in such a manner that a second, equally technically proficient person could do the same thing without the aid of outside materials and produce the same results…” (Lemper, n.d.). In order to write a notebook to accomplish this goal, multiple resources are available to students to assist them in writing their notebook specifically a notebook packet the instructor created to help Micro 310L students write a lab notebook. Even though there are resources available, there is still confusion amongst students about the content of a lab notebook. The interactive slide deck will guide students through the process of a writing a proper

This lab consisted of two parts over a span of three days. For part one on day one, we first began by determining the number of dilution that will be performed, and what the final dilution is going to be. My lab partner and I then disinfected our work bench to begin our procedure. To begin, using a filtered tip, we pipetted 900µL of sterile water into a labeled microcentrifuge tube for our 1:10 dilution. We then continued to keep diluting the tubes until we reached our final 1:1 dilution. We then vortexed our working stock for approximately 5 seconds and used a pipet to take 100 µL of the working stock solution to eject it into our first dilution microcentrifuge tube that contained 900 µL of sterile water. My lab partner and I used the same pipet to take out 100 µL of the first dilution to our next dilution that contained 900 µL of sterile water.

There are multiple items and steps to fully complete the experiment. My materials include the following: Graph paper, 200 regular Popsicle sticks, wire cutters, wood glue, 100 cotton swabs, 72 medium and small binder clips, one-half inch width clear tape, masking tape, gram balance, loading block

1. Lab reports are to be computer-generated and double-spaced. All sections of the report must

The report you are putting together is simpler than it seems. When you turn in the pre-lab, you are turning in the beginning of your report. The pre-lab gets turned in again with your final report. You will have updated the procedure used in the experiment along with any of the other sections. The pre-lab will serve as the front few pages of your final report. Please remember to turn these in!
