Purpose Solve the identity of an unknown bacterial specimen by creating a dichotomous key and using the staining, culturing and biochemical identification procedures you have learned about during the semester. Possible Organisms Alcaligenes faecalis Enterobacter aerogenes Enterococcus faecalis Escherichia coli Proteus vulgaris Pseudomonas aeruginosa Salmonella arizoniae Staphylococcus aureus Staphylococcus epidermidis Staphylococcus saprophyticus Streptococcusbovis Streptococcus pyogenes You must write up your OWN dichotomous key for all the possible unknown organisms listed on above. Writing this key requires you use the same type of reasoning used in the Dichotomous key lab. The first step of the key will be the Gram Stain. Subsequent steps will include biochemical tests only. Please help me with this question. Thank you so much !

Bacterial Genomics

The study of the morphological, physiological, and evolutionary aspects of the bacterial genome is referred to as bacterial genomics. This subdisciplinary field aids in understanding how genes are assembled into genomes. Further, bacterial or microbial genomics has helped researchers in understanding the pathogenicity of bacteria and other microbes.

Transformation Experiment in Bacteria

In the discovery of genetic material, the experiment conducted by Frederick Griffith on Streptococcus pneumonia proved to be a stepping stone.

Plasmids and Vectors

The DNA molecule that exists in a circular shape and is smaller in size which is capable of its replication is called Plasmids. In other words, it is called extra-chromosomal plasmid DNA. Vectors are the molecule which is capable of carrying genetic material which can be transferred into another cell and further carry out replication and expression. Plasmids can act as vectors.
