What type of instrument is available for measurement of bacterial growth on the basis of turbidity?
A spectrophotometer can be used to measure bacterial growth based on turbidity. It detects changes in light absorbance caused by the presence of bacteria in a liquid culture, with higher turbidity indicating more bacterial growth.
What does the culture with partial growth tell you about whether all of the bacterial cells incorporated the amp gene?
The presence of a culture with partial growth suggests that not all bacterial cells incorporated the amp gene. If all cells had successfully taken up the gene, we would expect uniform growth across the culture, as the amp gene typically confers resistance to antibiotics. The partial growth indicates that only a subset of cells may have acquired the gene, allowing them to survive and proliferate in the presence of the selective agent.
What important factors are included when describing bacterial growth according to Bergey?
Important factors include the optimal temperature, pH range, oxygen requirement, and nutritional requirements for growth. Additionally, factors such as salt concentration and the presence of specific growth factors or inhibitors may also be considered when describing bacterial growth using the Bergey's Manual of Systematics of Archaea and Bacteria.
What are the significance of bacterial growth curve in food preservation?
Well bacterial growth curve give simply the time vs no of cell curve which can be consider for different bacteria that at which temprature and pH they can stop growing, which would help in preserving food.
What gland gives off milky in appearance it contains proteins and helps in bacterial growth?
Milky with protein... I'm thinking the prostate gland. Bacterial growth?
What did the control broth inoculated with Escherichia coli demonstrate?
The control broth inoculated with Escherichia coli should demonstrate bacterial growth as expected. If there is no growth in the control broth, it may indicate issues with the inoculation process, the broth itself, or other experimental variables affecting bacterial growth.
What type of instrument is available for measurement of bacterial growth on the basis of turbidity?
A spectrophotometer can be used to measure bacterial growth based on turbidity. It detects changes in light absorbance caused by the presence of bacteria in a liquid culture, with higher turbidity indicating more bacterial growth.
Can you control bacterial growth?
Yes you can, by controlling the temperature, or using synthesized inorganic disinfectant.
Why might it be prefered to incubate medium at 37 degrees C with inoculated control then transfer tubes to refrigeator?
Incubating at 37°C promotes optimal bacterial growth for the control. Transferring to the refrigerator slows down bacterial growth and prevents overgrowth. This process allows for controlled bacterial growth and can help in analyzing the effects of the bacteria under specific conditions.
Whats the control in Sir Alexander Fleming's Experiment?
In Sir Alexander Fleming's experiment, the control was the Petri dishes that did not contain penicillin. These control dishes allowed Fleming to observe bacterial growth without the influence of the antibiotic, providing a baseline for comparison. By comparing the growth of bacteria in the control dishes to those treated with penicillin, Fleming could clearly demonstrate the antibiotic's effectiveness in inhibiting bacterial growth.
Explain how keeping food in a refrigerator helps to keep it fresh?
Coldness inhibits bacterial growth, thus preserving food longer.
Explain how nature would control an extreme population growth of voles?
i have zero idea
Is there an experiment that can show bacteria?
Yes, you can conduct a simple experiment using agar plates to show the presence of bacteria. You can swab a surface or sample, streak it onto an agar plate, incubate it for a few days, and observe the growth of bacterial colonies. This will demonstrate the presence of bacteria through visible growth on the agar plate.
What is the difference between bacterial and anti bacterial hand wash?
Bacterial hand wash favors the growth of bacteria on the surface of the skin ( hands). On the other hand ( no pun intended) ANTI bacterial hand wash does not favor bacterial growth and in fact contains agents to prevent any bacterial growth on the hands.
What conditions may have promoted bacterial growth?
warm , dark and moist conditions.
What does the culture with partial growth tell you about whether all of the bacterial cells incorporated the amp gene?
The presence of a culture with partial growth suggests that not all bacterial cells incorporated the amp gene. If all cells had successfully taken up the gene, we would expect uniform growth across the culture, as the amp gene typically confers resistance to antibiotics. The partial growth indicates that only a subset of cells may have acquired the gene, allowing them to survive and proliferate in the presence of the selective agent.
Can bacterial growth in urine result in false positive for methamphetamine?
No, drug tests are designed with things such as bacterial growth in mind.
