Microbiology

1n this report there is information about the safety rules which we have to follow in microbiology lab during experiments and various safety precautions we take in labs. A microbiology lab requires a unique environment & special practice. Then this report contains information about various kind culture media and there preparation which is essential for the culture plating detection of various microorganisms and bacteria There is information about various kinds culture plating techniques…

The study of microbiology requires not only understanding the microscopic organisms, but also the understanding of lab techniques and procedures used to identify, control, and manipulate microorganisms. The identification of microorganisms is not only important in microbiology lab, but also in the medical field to identify an agent of a disease that will help treat the patient by using the correct antibiotics to kill off the host. In this unknown lab report, techniques and procedures learned in…

A total of four microorganisms were isolated from the sample brought back from Mars. To identify the microorganisms which were isolated from the sample brought back from Mars, an rDNA sequence analysis was required. Every sequence had an S_ab score of 1.000 meaning the sequence is identical to the microorganism that it was matched to. Before gathering phenotypic results, we gathered phylogenetic data for the four microorganisms which includes Micrococcus luteus, Citrobacter freundii, Hafnia…

Microbiology piqued my interest when I gazed into a microscope for the first time. Previously, I never considered the existence of a world unseen by the naked eye. Then, I found myself gawking at an organism with a body as remarkably complex as my own. How could this be? How could an organism only visible through lenses have a body as intricate as an organism hundreds of times larger than itself? With these questions swimming in my head, I decided to study this world unseen. During my research,…

Microbiology Technician, Kent A world-leading provider of diagnostic products to the science industry is growing and require an experienced microbiology technician to join their Immuno- microbiology team. You will be responsible for the production and processing of polyclonal antibodies for streptococcal, staphylococcal and other assigned latex agglutination products. You will have at least a year in industry demonstrating core microbiology skills. Job Purpose To operate as a Technician…

Microbiology in itself is such a vital field which contributes and continuously defines the world in which we live in. Charles Darwin once stated “Each living creature must be looked at as a microcosm--a little universe, formed of a host of self-propagating organisms, inconceivably minute and as numerous as the stars in heaven” (Goodreads, 2015). I really liked this quote because I think it explains the vastness that microbiology possesses. We tend to look at the world seeing one individual…

Microbiology is the study of small organisms and or non living particles that are unseen to the naked eye. The microbes range from bacteria, to protozoa, parasites to virus. After studying them, scientists are able to identify various illnesses that are associated with microbes. These microbes are either directly or indirectly involved in most diseases. These in retrospect to their names cause bacterial infections, parasitical infections, fungal infections and viral infections. However, although…

cellular processes are ways in which microbes can be identified. A series of test were done to identify an unknown microbe labeled 5. Based on observation and the results conclusion was made to identify the bacteria as Enterobacter aerogenes. In microbiology, researchers are frequently trying to culture and classify microorganisms in a laboratory setting for study. Because of this there are now numerous test that can be used to identify unknown microbes. In this experiment, morphological…

The American Society for Microbiology (ASM) has defined a code of ethics for its members. This document has detailed standards for ethics, rules of conduct, and has a provision for extensive ethical review of any breach of ethical conduct, with provisions for appeal as well. The vision statement of the code of ethics emphasizes the promotion of human welfare, accumulation of knowledge, and honesty and truthfulness in all activities endorsed by the society. The jurisdiction of this code of ethics…

I think that the study of microbiology was hindered in the 18th and 19th century because not everyone knew what germs were at that time. It is hard for society to accept change and to believe in new things. Back then they didn’t have the internet or access to information to look up research to see if a new drug or vaccination was safe. Like in the video clip, Dr. Jenner’s first vaccine, some of the people weren’t willing to receive the vaccine for small pox because they were scared of it. Yes, I…
