- Clinical case: Mrs. P, patient with neurological signs suggesting meningitis Your 45 year old patient (who has recently moved from Great Britain where sey were born and raised) presents with severe headaches, stiffness in the neck, confusion and drowsiness. . You suspect meningitis, a life threatening infection of the tissue surrounding the brain and spinal cord. • You take a cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) sample from the patient and send it to the micro lab for examination and culturing. • Later that day the micro lab reports that no bacteria nor fungi were observed on a direct smear of the CSF. In 3 days, the lab reports that no bacteria nor fungi grew in cultures. • The lab also ran PCR for the most common viruses causing meningitis and all were negative. ELISA's checking for helminth and protozoal infections were also negative. Blood work suggests there is no immune response to the pathogen causing the patients clinical signs and symptoms.Please help me answer correctly the table this is my assignment in biochem lab Procedure: 1. Prepare 5 test tubes. Place 1 ml of 1% starch and add 10 drops of saliva to each tube. Mix thoroughly. 2. Place the first tube in ice water, the 2nd tube leave at room temperature, the 3rd tube in 40°C , the 4th tube at 60°Cwater bath and the 5th tube boil for 2 minutes.. 3. Leave the 4 tubes in their respective temperatures for 30 minutes. The 4th tube allows to stand for 30 minutes after heating for 2 minutes. 4. Test the contents of each tube with iodine and benedict’s tests.BONUS (15 points) The fallowing series of dilution was prepared from a specimen to determine the number of bacteria.

Justify your answer.Question 14 Which of the following tests requires a dilution of the culture before inoculation? O Bacitracin Bile esculin agar O DNase O CoagulaseHelping tags: Biology, bacterial count, dilution, serial dilution WILL UPVOTE, just pls help me answer the following questions and explain them clearly. Pls show complete solutions also for the computation part. Thank you. 1. A bacterial culture was grown for 9 hours. At 3-hour interval, the culture was sampled to determine the population of the culture, by transferring 25 ml of the suspension to 225 ml 0.85% NaCl. Three consecutive dilutions were further made by using 1 ml aliquot in 9 ml of 0.85% NaCI. One ml from each dilution was plated in each of duplicate plates. The following table shows the results of the plating method. Sampling COUNTS 2nd dilution 3rd dilution 4th dilution 0,0 30: 35 250;245 1st dilution 1st 2nd 3rd 0; 0 240; 235 TNTC 55; 60 5; 6 TNTC TNCT TNTC TNTC a) Illustrate the dilution series used and label the final dilution of each dilution. b) Determine the bacterial count (CFU/ml) every 3 hours of incubation for 9 hours. Show all computations.
