- You are asked to prepare Murashige & Skoog (MS) medium according to concentration shown the Table. Answer the following question: 1. Prepare 250 mL stock solution (200X more concentrated) of ammonium nitrate and KNO3. 2. From the prepared ammonium nitrate stock solution above, calculate the volume required to prepare 200 mL MS medium.The original concentration in a sample of kombucha is 2.79 x 10^6 CFU/ml. Which dilution would yield a countable plate? How would you make this? Show your calculations. Confused as to what's implied by "which dilution"? does it mean, how many times?As a public health engieer you have been tasked wiyh designing a plug flow reactor for the disinfection of Giardia lamblia using either free chlorine and monochloramine. The objective is a three log reduction in the concentration of Giardia lamblia. The kinetics of chlorine decay can be described by a first order coefficient of 0.1 d-1. It is also given that the appropriate contact time, t10, equals the hydrualic residence time (HRT or td) of the plug flow reactor. Question: At a temperature of 5oC and a pH of 7.0, what is the volume of the PFR if the flowrate of the water to be disinfected is 1000 L/d for chlorine and monochloramine Disinfection data in the table below can be used.
- Nitrate reduction test can be used to differentiate between Pseudomonads and Enterobacteriaceae. You inoculated your Nitrate broth with your unknown; after incubation, you added 5 drops of reagent A and 5 drops of reagent B. You observe a red color within 2 minutes. Is this a + or a - reaction? Assuming you did not get a red color, you then added a pinch of Zinc and this time tou obtained a red color. What does this mean?All recipes are given per litre unless specified.
