Why is condensation on the agar undesirable?

It'll cause the spreading of the colonies that are growing on the agar surface if the condensed water falls on them. That's why usually the plates are inverted during incubation.


Why are bacterial cultures shaken during incubation?

For obligate aerobes, which are bacteria that require oxygen to grow, the shaking of the culture aerates the bacteria sufficiently to allow for growth. Facultative anaerobes also grow well under such conditions since they are bacteria that do not require oxygen, but do grow better under such conditions. Older answer: The culture plated should be inverted (not necessarily shaken) during incubation so that moisture does not collect on the surface of the agar, which could cause clumping of the colonies.


Is it possible to get pregnant during menstrual cycle?

You are constantly in a menstrual cycle. It is the 28 days from the start of one period to the start of another. What I think you meant to ask is "Can you get pregnant during Menstruation?" Menstruation is your period. You can get pregnant during this time, but your chances are very low.


Is lactobacillus an anaerobic bacteria?

I am asking myself the same question, and found this report, which seems to indicate that lactobacillus prefers an anaerobic environment...:Abstract: The growth rate of Lactobacillus plantarum(...) decreased during aerobic incubation (relative to anaerobic incubation). (...) Increased O2 utilization was accompanied by a switch in metabolism which resulted in acetate rather than lactate accumulation in aerobic cultures."Comparison of aerobic and anaerobic growth of Lactobacillus plantarum in a glucose medium", http://www.springerlink.com/content/p18g513007110117/


Does passing gas release bits of excement?

Not usually. The odor (to which we presume you are referring ) is a complex mixture of gases, principally methane, that are produced during the digestive process.

Chlamydia can be transmitted during vaginal, anal, or oral sex; genital-genital contact; and sharing sex toys. Chlamydia can also be passed from an infected mother to her baby during vaginal childbirth. If none of these is in your definition of "making out," then you can't get chlamydia from making out.


Why are inverted plates during incubation?

Because during incubation moisture will form at the top of the petri dish. Inverting the dish prevents it from dropping into whatever you have in the petri dish.

What to do during incubation of mumps?

If one has been exposed to mumps, they will be asymptomatic during the incubation period. This period usually lasts about two weeks but can be as long as 25 days. During this time, one can mostly carry on life as usual but should take care to avoid contact with immunocompromised people or with very young children.
