You want to replicate Francesco Redi’s “rotting meat” experiment in disproving spontaneous generation, but improve upon the original experimental design. You have access to: ●1 kg of uncooked minced beef ●Gas cook top ●Fry pan ●Plastic cling wrap ●Bowls ●Refrigerator set to 4 degrees 1A. Describe TWO (2) experimental variables you will change and monitor, and how you will use the above items to do so.

Experiment #1 From Antoinette de Senna’s Master’s thesis on ‘Screening of biological control organisms for the management of phytopathogenic fungi and foodborne pathogens on produce’. Objective: To screen three LAB (Lactobacillus plantarum, Pediococcus acidilactici, and Pediococcus pentosaceus) for antimicrobial activity against the foodborne pathogens Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella, and Escherichia coli. Methods: 1 ml of the pathogen was placed into a petri dish. Then, 15-20 ml molten tryptic soy agar (TSA) tempered to 50°C was added. When the TSA solidified, a loopful of LAB was spotted onto the agar. Plates were incubated at 35°C for 24 hours then the zone of inhibition was measured from the boarder of the bacterial colony to the perimeter of the clearing. Results: Questions: What is the independent variable? What is the dependent variable? Suggest a control for this experiment? What is the optimal temperature range for Listeria monocyogenes? Is monocyogenes a…

Suppose your professor handed you a bottle of kombucha with 2.0 ml in it and told you to make a 10^-2 dilution of the entire culture. Explain how you would do this. Show your calculations.
As shown in this diagram, you perform a ten-fold serial dilution of a culture to determine the number of colony forming units (CFU) per mL it contains. You do a plate count with these growth results (no. of colonies for each dilution): 1:10 too many to count; 1:100 too many to count; 1:1,000 312; 1:10,000 38; 1:100,000 no growth. The number of CFU per mL in the original culture was: A. 38 B. 380,000 C. 38,000 D. None of the other four answers (Correct answer not given) E. 10,000
You pipette 1mL from a 30mL starting culture into a 99mL blank labeled A. You plate 1mL and 0.1mL of blank A onto plates B and C, respectively. Plate B has 310 colonies and Plate C has 31 colonies. What is the total cfu of the original culture? Select one: a. 9.3e5 b. 3.1e3 c. 3.1e4 d. 9.3e4 e. 3.1e5
In this experiment, a culture was serially diluted to the concentrations below. Each plate was plated with 0.25mL of the dilution. Using the most diluted plate, what is the correct concentration of the original culture? A) 2.0 X 10^-3 cells/mL B) 2.0 X 10^5 cells/mL C) 4.0 X 10^5 cells/mL D) 5.0 X 10^4 cells/mL

In an experiment to calculate the decimal reduction time for an Escherichia coli culture, viable cells were exposed to a constant temperature of 80°C for a set amount of time. After exposure, the remaining number of surviving cells were counted. Based on Table 1, what is the decimal reduction time?Table 1. Decimal Reduction Time for E. coli Heated to 80°C Total time of exposure (minutes): Number of Microbial Cells Present: 0 100 1 80 3 50 4 42 6.5 26 13 10 21 0
