Census Tract 78.09 In the middle of the Pacific Ocean lays the biggest chain of islands‚ the Hawaiian Islands‚ and on the Island of Oahu within census tract number 78.07 (figure 1) is my home. This tract is in the southern part of the island and its east boundary is Aiea. This tract is also between two main roads: on the north there is the H-1 freeway‚ and from the south Moanalua Rd.‚ which is also bordered with Pearl Ridge Shopping Center. This tract‚ even though it may not seem like it‚ is

Exploring the diversity‚ abundance‚ and variability of diatom-associated bacteria in the oligotrophic ocean I. Abstract The ecology of diatoms may be better explained by conceptualizing them as composite organisms consisting of the host cell and its bacterial associates. Our previous investigated diatom-bacterial interactions at the single-cell level found that bacterial assemblages varied substantially even among closely related individual host cells. The bacterial assemblages associated with single

Microbiology Laboratory Report Identification of Unknown Bacteria 03/10/05- 04/01/05 Authors: Richard Hendricks‚ Jessica Prebish; NMU Abstract: Broth culture 16 was randomly selected by our group and subjected to qualitative tests for taxonomic identification. The culture did appear homogenous throughout the testing period and is currently retained by Northern Michigan University’s department of Microbiology. We suggest that culture 16 is an example of Escherichia coli. Background: Techniques

Bacterial Contamination April 15‚ 2013 Bacteria Contamination The definition of bacterial contamination is food contamination refers to foods that are spoiled or tainted because they either contain microorganisms‚ such as bacteria or parasites‚ or toxic substances that make them unfit for consumption This is very serious and people should take more precaution‚ food contamination is a serious because it results in foodborne diseases that each year affect an estimated seventy-six million

Lab 11 Methodology By using aseptic‚ a little cultured bacteria was inoculated on the TSA agar. A quadric streak was making. Inoculation loop was heated and keep it cold for a while before the next quadratic streak. Six agar plates were observed for 24 hour at temperature of 30ºC. Choose one from the dense colony and make a sub-culture on the new agar plate. The step was repeated to get a single colony‚ which is pure colony. a) Sequestration of bacteria from fish organs Methodology

Introduction: During this unknown lab report various test were performed to differentiate microbes from each other and to compare metabolic and biochemical process. The gram stain distinguishes between Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria based on the composition of the cell wall. The Gram stain procedure distinguishes between Gram positive and Gram negative groups by coloring these cells red or violet. Gram positive bacteria stain violet due to the presence of a thick layer of peptidoglycan

be evolutionary adaptations allowing the elephant to remain underwater for long periods of time while breathing through its trunk which emerges as a snorkel.[4] Birds The main section for this topic is on the page Bird anatomy‚ in the section Respiratory system. The respiratory system of birds differs significantly from that found in mammals‚ containing unique anatomical features such as air sacs. The lungs of birds also do not have the capacity to inflate as birds lack a diaphragm and a pleural cavity. Gas

Title: Observing Bacteria and Blood- Lab #1 Purpose: Being able to learn how to correctly use a microscope and the oil immersion lens to be able to see the prepared slides. Also to learn how to prepare my own yogurt and blood slides. Procedure: First‚ set up the microscope. Clean the ocular lenses and objectives with lens paper. Then pace the prepared e slide on the stage and make adjustments. Turn the rotating nosepiece until the 10x objective is above the ring of light coming through the slide

Glowing Bacteria Lab Introduction- 1. Transformation involves the transfer of genetic information into a cell by directly taking up foreign DNA from its surroundings. This DNA is then incorporated into the host cell’s own DNA. This transformation usually occurs within plasmids‚ small circular DNA molecules separate from its chromosome. After the recipient cell is infected with the DNA‚ the cell will move on with replication‚ producing offspring with traits encoded by the plasmid. These plasmids
