Prove if the statement is TRUE or False with complete solution. At a dilution factor of, UHT-pasteurized milk sample X yielded the following bacterial colony counts when spread-plated in quadruplicates: 23, 20, 35, and 41 CFU/plate. As a result, the milk sample will pass laboratory standards if the total microbial limit is set to "not to exceed 30,000 CFU/mL of milk sample."

Create a flow chart to perform the required tests to identify unknown microorganism: - Use at least 3 other biochemical tests from the following list: Mannitol salt agar, Blood agar, Starch agar, Tributyrin Agar, Gelatin, Casein agar, Indole Production, MR-VP, Citrate, Hydrogen Sulfide test, Urease test, Nitrate reduction test, Catalase test, and Oxidase test. The Gram positive organisms that could be present in your unknown mixture are: Bacillus cereus, Micrococcus luteus, Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis and Lactococcus lactis.
Thermotolerant coliforms are often referred to as "faecal coliforms", although the organisms may not be of faecal origin. The time interval between collection of the sample and testing shoud not exceed 6 hours, why is this?
‘Practical techniques used to identify unknown microorganisms’ You should include the types of tests you would use and how to interpret the results. You do not have to include a step-by-step guide to each of the practical techniques, but rather information could include background, reasoning and/or expected results.
Given the scenario, compute for the total volume of the culture media solution (milliliter or liter) and dehydrated media (grams). Scenario: The students of a Microbiology class were tasked to transfer or subculture a pure culture of Escherichia coli bacterium in five 7 mL nutrient broth and five petri dishes of nutrient agar with 20 mL capacity each. Based on the instruction bottles for nutrient broth and nutrient agar, preparation of the culture media is as follows. Nutrient broth: 8 g/liter Nutrient agar: 28 g/liter Formula: C1V1 = C2V2 *Concentration *Volume Computation: What are the answers to the following. Weight in grams of nutrient broth: _________ Distilled water in mL for nutrient broth: __________ Weight in grams of nutrient agar __________ Distilled water in mL for nutrient agar: ____________
