Please use this submission link to submit your flowcharts. You will need to submit a total of three flowcharts, one for each of your unknown microorganisms (gram positive rod, gram positive coccus, and gram negative rod). Please make sure that you only use the allowed tests: and microorganisms to complete your flowchart. You must identify each of the allowed organisms to a tip on the flowchart. Each organism must take no more than 3 total tests to completely identify POSSIBLE MICROBES & ALLOWED TESTS MICROBE Gram rxn/shape Catalase Activity Mannitol/High Salt (growth/ferm) H2S prod.

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 Answer the following: a. What is the weight in grams of nutrient broth? b. What is the weight in grams of nutrient agar? c. What is the distilled water in mL for nutrient broth? d. What is the distilled water in mL for nutrient agar?

You have used morphological observations and biochemical tests to identify two unknown bacterial isolates in your practical sessions, briefly describe three other techniques that can be used to identify unknown bacteria (you can use any reliable online resources). Note: These must not be based on biochemical tests (enzyme use, acid production etc) or morphological characteristics (size, shape, structures).
Explain why culture based biochemical and genetic testing would not be the ideal method to identify the microbe.
