Gram-positive bacteria

To carry out chemical profiling and antioxidant activity of essential oils extracted from two sample trees of Cinnamomum tamala. • To observe antimicrobial activity of essential oils and extracts of Cinnamon on various food borne human pathogenic bacteria. Materials and Method: 4.1 Plant material Aerial parts (needles, branchlets and female cones) of C. tamala were collected from Centre for Aromatic Plants premises (680 m asl) in March 2015. The plant specimen was identified based on the…

Muscular men with superhuman features is the definition of a hero on google. Even though superheroes in comics can be heroes, true heroes are ones who normally aren’t recognized for their physical features, but their actions. In The Outsiders, by S.E. Hinton, Darrel Curtis is considered a hero because he raises and cares for his siblings and friends. Darry can also be recognized as an anti-hero considering he slapped Ponyboy in anger. “Tragedy of college student, 19, left to raise her three…

Introduction: Klebsiella pneumoniae is a part of the family Enterobacteriaceae. This genus is a gram negative and it has no flagella, which meant that this bacterium is not motile. However, it can move with the use of the current that is produced by the water. This bacterium has the ability to cause destructive change in a man or animals lungs if aspirated. In addition, this is also one of the most contacted pathogen in a Hospital Acquired Infection (HAI) or nosocomial infection. In this…

MATERIALS AND METHODS The first day of the independent experiment was on October 25, 2016. Mannitol Salt Agar and Phenylethanol Agar are selective media that were used to isolate M. luteus from the environmental samples. Sterile cotton swabs were used to obtain the samples from the skin, arms and dust through wiping the surface of the sample source. A handful of backyard soil was previously diluted and then 2mL of this diluted soil was transferred to a sterile test tube containing 9mL water…

Burkholderia Taxonomy and Genomics Burkholderia pseudomallei (Bp) belongs to the Burkholderia genus which contains over 40 species that inhabit a variety of ecological niches. The majority of species within this genus are non-pathogenic soil-dwelling bacteria, but a few species are highly pathogenic to humans and can result in severe disease [1]. This includes B. mallei, an obligate mammalian pathogen and the causative agent of glanders, which primarily affects horses and other solipeds and…

environmental engineering is to support the start of the analysis for possible biological contamination in water for causative microorganisms of waterborne disease. For they use coliforms they are cheaper and faster than others. This experiment had positive results. The colonies were counted…

In addition, procedure part H contains the viewing of cheek cells, cheek cells are a high-caliber option for identifying the membrane, and cytoplasm of a cell. To begin, place a drop of methylene blue on a slide, then smear a toothpick amongst the inside of the cheek, lastly smear the toothpick onto the stained slide. Cheek cells just like starch cells are hard to be viewed without the addition of a staining chemical, in this case, the methylene blue will make the cheek cells have a slight blue…

the biochemical and morphological tests. The test that were performed were Sim, FTM, oxidase, catalase, MSA, blood agar, Acid fast stain and endospore stain. The sim and oxidase test were negative. The FTM, catalase, MSA and blood agar tests were positive. After the Acid Fast stain, the cells were blue and non-acid fast. After the Endospore stain, the cells were pink. This indicated that they were non-endospores. DISCUSSION The purpose of this experiment was to search through soil, isolate and…

INTRODUCTION On the 9th our Biology class went on a trip to Sirens Rock Wellington to investigate the organisms living at the rocky shore and their relationships with each other our task was to display information on the relationships between two species we discovered at the Rocky Shore we then use this information to form a report and explain the species and their relationship with one another, but before this we need to understand the definition of zonation; zonation is the distribution of…

shape, cell wall structure, and other characteristic using the results from tests such as gram staining, simple staining, and spore staining. According to my lab notebook, the result from gram staining of my known is seen to be a rounded shape, cocci shape all bunched and clustered together like a bunch of grapes at 100x using the microscope (Kaddo, 2017, pg. 22). The color after the safranin wash from gram staining…
