Calculate the amount of phycocyanin in Sample 1 in mg where A620=0.204 and A650=0.061, taking into account the dilution factor as per question 6, and the total volume of extract as per question 4. Note your answer to 2 decimal places Sample 1 Total Extract Volume (ml) is 45 Dilution factor is 100 A280 is 1.07 A620 is 0.221 A650 is 00.97 Specific Absorbance Ratio (SAR) A620/A280 is 0.206
A sample is diluted by a factor of 10 five times. The 10^-3 dilution has 272 colonies on it. Assuming you plated the same volume on each plate, how many colonies would you expect to find on the 10^-4 plate? Include units and use OCD formula.
Which of the following is an important measure that may prevent bacterial contamination in tube feeding formulas? Question 71 options: a) Discarding opened containers of formula not used within 24 hours b) Adding formula to the feeding container before it empties completely c) Using the same feeding bag and tubing each day d) Adding the full days worth of formula to the bag at the start of each day
2.1The number of bacteria in the samples need to be quantified. The laboratory uses a specificprotocol where the dilution factor on the spread plates must be:10-6; 10-7; 10-8Describe how you would prepare the required dilution series using the least amount of dilutionwater. 2.2 Calculate the amount of bacteria in the sample from the following results (show the steps in the calculation): Dilution factor Count10-6 27110-7 3510-8 21
Pretend the results below were obtained for water from your well. The 10 mL tubes are Full Strength, or 9.9 mL of the sample plus 0.1 mL of 10x broth (here a fluorescent Brilliant Green Broth). The 1 mL tubes are 1 mL sample plus 9 mL of normal broth (so a ten-fold dilution). The 0.1 mL are that much sample with 9.9 mL of the broth (so a hundred-fold dilution). Dark green indicates coliform presence. Use the table and the figure and give me the MPN. To do so, count the number of positive tubes at each dilution. Then match the counts to the set of values that most closely fits. Yes, you need to consider the set of values for None, 1 and 0.1 taken together. For example, 5,2,1. What is the MPN estimate for this well water sample? If safe drinking water is <5 cells/100 mL would you drink this well water?
You are testing unpasteurized milk for the presence of bacterial contamination. Starting from the undiluted milk, you do serial dilutions, and plate 0.5 ml of 4th dilution on agar. If you counted 78 CFUs from the 4th plate, how many bacteria/ml do you expect? (show solution) Do you think standard plate counts are very accurate? Why or why not?
One ml of a sample was added to 99 ml of buffer. 100 µ of this was plated in nutrient agar. After incubation, 247 colonies were present on the plate. How many colony-forming units were present per ml of the original sample? Show your working out. What would you record in your workbook if there were 378 colonies present? Why? B. Give definitions of these bacterial growth in relation to O2 availability. 1. E. coli , micrococcus Letues, clostridium sprogenes
Look for two product of Milk in the internet and answer the following queston: 1. Method of sterilization used. 2. What is the Bacterial culture and flavor used if there is any. 3. What is the Fat, Protein & Carbohydrate(sugar) content? 4. Is fortification done? What substances has been fortified (based on the label)? 5. Are Vitamins & amino acids added? Name them based on the label.
Why are the Methyl Red/Voges-Proskauer tests done after 48 hours of incubation?a) Readings taken at earlier time points may be different from readings taken at 48 hours b) Bacteria need 48 hours to process all the oxygen in the media c) Bacteria grow slowly in the MR/VP media d) K2HPO4 needs 48 hours to react with the acids produced by fermenting bacteria
Please explain Now that the laboratory scientist has a 1:10 dilution, what dilution should he make next to create a 1:100 dilution? Choose best letter answer and give a brief explanation. A. 1:2 B. 1:5 C. 1:10 D. 1:100
1 (a)Why is the spectrophotometer set at 0.000 absorbance for the uninoculated tube of broth? (B) Why can't you use the same plot (or standard curve) of plot of absorbance versus cell count for Escherichia coli for other bacteria? (C)List 3 advantages of estimating microbial numbers or biomass by the turbidimetric method? (C)(ii)List 2 disadvantages of this method? (D) Can you measure all kinds of microbes this way? Why not? ( this is not a graded assignment)
Do you think standard plate counts are very accurate? Why or why not? When doing serial dilutions, why is it necessary to plate more than one dilution? You left a carton of orange juice on your counter for 3 days. When you taste it, it is very bubbly (as though it was carbonated), and it tastes more bitter than usual. (Note: acids taste bitter). What do you think could have happened? (Note: you can’t just say that bacteria grew—you must explain how the growth of the bacteria resulted in the changes in the orange juice.) Based on what you now know about the presence of bacteria on chicken and beef, why is it a good idea to use separate chopping boards for meat and for vegetables? Please help me thank you
