25 g of sugar sample was obtained from the production line for analysis of raw ingredients. It was diluted to 250 ml and was heated at 100 deg Celsius for 5 minutes. After cooling, 20 ml of the sample solution was divided equally among 6 tubes of sulfite agar. After incubation, the following counts were obtained: 35, 26, 29, 32, 34, and 31. Compute for the number of sulfide spoilage spores and express the count per 50 g of sugar.

POTATO OSMOSIS (LABORATORY EXPERIMENTATION) MATERIALS: Small basin 2 medium size potatoes (fresh) Table salt Sugar Distilled water (Wilkins or H2Zero) PROCEDURE: A. POTATOES Cut the potatoes to half, making 4 pcs of potatoes Cook one of the half potatoes and set aside the 3 other potatoes Label the cooked potato as letter B. MAKING A CAVITY Make a cavity of each half potato Label the raw potato as A B and C In potato A place salt on the cavity In potato B place sugar in the cavity Leave the potato C empty. Place sugar on the cavity of potato D C. POTATO OSMOSIS - Place distilled water in the basin and arranged the potatoes inside the basin. Leave it for 1hr. Observe after an hour. Do not mind the color of the potato. QUESTIONS: 1. What is your observation from potato A to D? 2. What can you conclude by comparing potato A and potato B? 3. What can you conclude by comparing potato A and potato C?

EGG OSMOSIS (LABORATORY EXPERIMENTATION) MATERIALS: 3 glasses 3 small eggs (Quail eggs, if available) vinegar Sugar solution (1 teaspoon of sugar in 100mL of water) Salt solution (1 teaspoon of salt in 100mL of water) Distilled water (Wilkins or H2Zero) PROCEDURES: Removing of Egg Shell Carefully pour vinegar in a glass Submerge the eggs in the vinegar, make sure the eggs are cover to the surface. Soak the eggs for 24 hours. The vinegar will remove the eggs’ shells. The acetic acid in the vinegar reacts with the calcium carbonate in the shell. 2. After 24 hrs Slowly pour out the vinegar leaving a revealed membrane of the eggs. Wash the egg slowly. Measure the egg, using a tape measure. Find the circumference of the egg 3. Soaking in 3 different medium Soak the 3 eggs to different medium. 1 glass contains salt solution (label A) 1 glass contains sugar solution (label B) 1 Glass contains distilled water (label C) Leave it for 24 hours 4.
