Many types of fruits and vegetables can be fermented into alcoholic beverages. Such was the case recently when prisoners in Utah attempted to make an illegal beverage called “pruno”; however, someone added a weeks-old baked potato to the mix, letting a microbe into the party who was clearly uninvited. Consumers of the pruno began to develop difficulty swallowing, vomiting, double vision, and muscle weakness; three required ventilation therapy. No deaths were attributed to the contaminated beverage. A) What nervous system disease were the prisoners suffering from, and what was the specific organism involved?

Write a paragraph for when you once have Neisseria gonorrhoea bacteria in its pure form, what methods can you use to confirm the identity of this bacterium as N. gonorrhoeae? Mention what is the principle of those methods.

You have several different media onto which you inoculated eight strains of yeast (A-H). The media include a rich medium, an unsupplemented minimal medium, and minimal media each supplemented with one vitamin. Of the yeast strains, one is a prototroph and seven are auxotrophs for a vitamin. After overnight incubation, the following results were observed (tan patches represent growth): D plate 1 (A) B DE F GH plate 5 plate 4 plate 6 Which plate contains an unsupplemented minimal medium? [Select] Which plate contains a rich medium? [Select] plate 2 Which strain is a prototroph? [Select] Strain E is an auxotroph for niacin. Which plate reveals this specific auxotrophy? [ Select] plate 3 plate 7 One strain is an auxotroph for both choline and pantothenic acid. Which one is this most likely to be? [Select]

I AM TRYING TO IDENTIFY THIS UNKNOWN.  ***IMAGE 1 HAS TWO PICTURE OF CATALASE TEST AND BLOOD AGAR TEST. ***IMAGE 2 HAS THREE TESTS CONDUCTED ON IT, OXIDASE, BACITRACIN AND NOVOBIOCIN. I believe it is one of the following: 1) S. pyo.    2)S. agal .     3)S.pneu.   4)E. faecalis                  5)S. aureus       6)S epi.       7)S. sapro.        8)M. luteus Please let me know which one of the above is thge unknown. You have pictures of the unkown on Catalase and Blood Agar and three test conducted on Oxidase, Bacitracin and Novobiocin. Give reasoning as why you think it will be one of the above. Explaing the characteristics and what made you deicide it?
