in oil reduced from 86.48 - 0.00, 86.48 - 0.00, 86.48 - 64.00 and 91.86 - 49.58 respectively. The storage conditions significantly influenced eggs haugh index at 95% confidence level. Haugh index is used to determine the suitability of eggs for incubation and consumption, as it defines the quality of eggs based on dense albumen index and eggs weight (Berardineli et al., 2008). Among the storage conditions considered, storage under refrigeration had limited effect on the haugh index of both eggs,…

After gram staining both the gram positive and gram-negative bacteria, the groupings were observed. For the unknown gram-positive bacteria, the cells were arranged in a cocci cluster, while in the gram-negative bacteria, the cells were arranged in a rod cluster. Both the gram negative and gram-positive bacteria exhibit a small yellow colony on the TSA plate. After 48 hours, the MSA plate was observed. Individual isolated colonies were found throughout the plate, with a yellowish color. The…
