Where Do Bacteria Grow? I had some prior knowledge about bacteria before conducting the environmental sampling lab. I knew that bacteria could be found in many different places. Also, different types of bacteria grow in different conditions. From prior experience, I remembered that to grow bacteria in a petri dish one must follow the proper technique. I chose to test how much bacteria grows on toilet handle in the bathroom. My prediction for the experiment before it was conducted was that…

Escherichia Coli, or E. Coli, are a large and diverse colony of bacteria within the fecal coliforms group – a group of closely related bacterial genera that share the ability to metabolize sugar lactose, producing acids and gas as byproducts – found living harmlessly in warm-blooded organisms’ intestines, the environment, or in various foods (2006). Unfortunately, some forms of E. Coli bacteria are pathogenic, in which the bacteria has developed the ability to cause the disease of the urinary,…

toxicant which is identified as leading cause of bladder cancer and also associates with rectal and blood cancer. It has been reported that asthma can be triggered by chlorinated water if we drink it (Watson and Kibler, 1993). Chlorine is used as disinfectant as it kills the microorganisms like certain bacteria, but the trouble is that it does not know when to stop killing which will lead to toxic effects for the body. It has also been shown that exposure to chlorine and hypochlorite will lead…

to be useful in the sanitation of water and its viability as a disinfectant. However, its manipulation and use in forming artificial chemical products has had devastating effects on the environment. Chlorine plays a major role in environmental problems such as depletion of the ozone layer, global warming and acid rain. It is most common in salt, but it is also prominent as organochlorines in solvents, pesticides, plastics, disinfectants, and paper products. In order to prevent the adverse…
