Steps in making a smear?

Smear is one of the forms in which organisms are viwed under the light microscope in microbiology, the other form is as wet mounts, remember that smear is used to view killed organisms the steps in making smear are as follow: 1-Get a grease free slide and a wire loop. 2-sterilize the wire loop by flaming. 3-deep the wire loop in a normal saline. 4-touch the slide with the wire loop, there will be a drop of normal saline on the slide. 4-sterilize the wire loop again and touch a small part of a colony in petri dish, then mix it with the normal saline on the slide. 5-allow it to air dry. 6-pass it through an open flame three times(heat fixation). Then view under the microscopes. The heat fixation is done in order to: 1-to fix the smear to the slide. 2-to kill the organism 3-to alter the organism so that it can accept stain readily.

Why if the same current flows in a wire coil and a single wire loop the magnetic field inside the coil is stronger than the field inside the loop?

why, if the same current flows in a wire coil and a single loop, the magnetic field inside the coil stronger than the field inside the loop


A loop of wire is placed within a magnetic field If the loop of wire is stationary as is the magnetic field will a current be induced in the wire?

No it will not. In order to get electrical activity you need motion. Either the magnet or the wire must move.


Why the loop is flamed after completing the inoculation?

because when we inoculate the culture with wire loop,some organism may be sticked to it which may be harmful or can cause trouble.so to destroy the remaining organisms wire loop is flamed again.


What describes the production of an electric current by moving a loop of wire through a magnetic field or moving a magnet through a wire loop?

moving a loop of wire through a magnetic Field. The rotation of a coil of copper wire trough a magnetic field changes magnetic field as "seen" from the coil inducing an alternating current.
