Even though utilizing personal protective equipment can keep myself and other's safe, viruses need to be a constant concern because of their unknown routes of infection, abilities to mutate and Secondhand contact with patient's substances doesn't change the severity of the possibly infection. Richard Preston really wrote this book to keep the reader anxious the entire time. Each individual that he interviewed was well aware of how severe of constant concern of transmission from the virus. I…
given was to identify an unknown bacterium of the student’s choosing using Bergey’s Manual, unknown #6 was selected for this lab. Bergey’s Manual is a valuable resource because it provides classification based on rRNA when identifying an unknown bacterium. The purpose of identifying bacteria is for pragmatic purposes- like determining the appropriate treatment for certain infections and diseases. Through Bergey’s Manual, one should be able to successfully identify an unknown bacterium and if it…
Identification of Unknown Bacterium #8 Report. Aim: The objective of this report is to identify the unknown bacteria by completing different tests. The test includes things such as a Nutrient agar plate, MacConkey’s agar plate, Gram staining, Oxidase test, UTI ID Membrane, and Eosin Ethylene Blue Agar. Materials: Testing Unknown Bacteria #8 Materials: 1. Nutrient Agar Plate (NA) 9. Hydrogen Peroxide - 2 g/ml. MacConkey’s Agar Plate (MAC) 10. UTI filter 3. Eosin Methylene Blue Agar Plate (EMB)…
hypothesis was that unknown was calcium chloride. This conclusion came from a couple of sources of reasoning. First, a number of compounds were present in the lab, and one of those had to be the unknown. Second, the unknown was white and spherical in shape, and so these characteristics were examined for in the possible compounds. Compounds that were sand-like in texture or liquid in their present physical state were passed over since none of those compounds could be the unknown. Calcium chloride…
The Unknown It is gloomy cold no one knows what is about to happen. Inside the house there is a frail newborn with a father and me. The house is damp slight light very dull nothing fancy. All the world seemly stopped for the past few weeks in fear for the unknown. People staying inside getting ready scared to come out. Some people have been preparing for years on end. Some now are going insane trying to buy things they think they need. At this point it does not even matter anymore. There has…
chlorine in an unknown soluble salt through using gravimetric techniques. The unknown salt was dissolved in water and the chloride ions were precipitated using silver nitrate which produced silver chloride. The silver chloride was then separated by filtration techniques and through this the amount of chlorine in the original salt was able to be calculated. It is expected that the chlorine percent will be around 55.95% because that is the accepted value of chlorine content in the unknown salt.…
Biochemical Unknown I. Introduction Cultural Characteristics or morphology and biochemical tests can be used to identify and classify microorganism. By culturing microorganism in nutrient broth, slants, and on nutrient agar plates, the cultural characteristics or morphology can be determined. In this lab, the test tube 2 was incubated in a nutrient broth. The pigmentation of the tube was yellow. The media for test tube 2 was turbid. There were a few sediment on the bottom of the broth. In…
The Unknown It all started the day a dusty handprint appeared on the outer side of the glass dome; the day we knew we weren't the last ones still alive. About 20 years ago a new plague hit North America called Vistalis, it spread around through mosquitos. Pretty soon there were 100s of people dying from the plague. What the scientists didn’t know, was that the moment that one person got the plague, the plague would spread through the air. Vistalis soon spread all over the world, in less than 7…
these deaths was the creation of war memorials and ceremonies to honor the dead. Basically all belligerent countries had adopted national ceremonies and a special tombstone would commemorate all of the soldiers that had died, which is called the Unknown Soldier tombstone. As with the number of casualties, battlefield became…
