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?

A mistake was made in preparing the arginine decarboxylase test, and mineral oil was NOT added to the test tube after inoculating with bacteria. If an arginine decarboxylase-positive bacteria species was inoculated into the above arginine-decarboxylase broth without mineral oil, what would likely be the color result of this bacteria in this test? Would this produce a false positive or false negative result? Explain.
In this experiment of polyphenoloxidase, why does the longer the time, the darker the color is ithe result of the unheated sample?
Imagine you have been given a liquid culture of yeast with a starting concentration of 3.67 x 10' cells/ml and are asked to carry out the sample dilution process shown in the figure below. 100μl 100μl 100μl 100μl 100μl 0.9ml 0.9ml 0.9ml H2O H₂O 6.9ml 0.9ml H₂O H₂O H₂O Original 10-1 102 10-3 104 Culture 105 100μl 100μl 100μl Plate A Plate B Plate C a. How many colonies should have been present on Plate A in this example? - Answers must be whole numbers as partial colonies are not expected. b. Imagine you carried out the same dilution scheme shown in the figure above, but now, you do not know the concentration of the original culture. If you counted 163 colonies on Plate B, what is the concentration of cells/ml in the original culture?
A culture of S. cerevisea has an overnight OD of 4.5 (1.0 OD is approx 1.0x107 cells/ml) You will be plating 100µl onto agar and want the final count of colonies on the plate to be around 300 colonies. How much of the 4.5 OD culture must you use to get a 500µl subdilution (with sterile water), so that you have diluted enough to get approx 300 colonies per 100ul
Prior to subculture, Tifa used a hemocytometer to count her HepG2 cells cultured on a T-25 flask. After trypsinization, she prepared her cells by mixing 50 µL of the cell suspension with 50 μL of 0.4% trypan blue. Her observation under the microscope is as shown below: 1 (1) (ii) 3 (iii) 2 (iv) 4 Note: Count cells on the four labelled squares. Include cells touching the line on top and left. 18P 06. ¿66 Ⓡ Determine the number of viable and dead cells from her observation. What is the percentage of viability of this culture? Show your calculations in detail. Calculate the concentration of viable cells per mL in the original culture. Show your calculations in detail. Based on your understanding of cell culture, do you think she should proceed with subculture? Justify your answer.
A light yellow colony from a skin lesion grew aerobically and tested as catalase positive and coagulase negative. The organism stained as GPC. The organism was modified oxidase positive, bacitracin (0.04U) susceptible, and resistant to lyphostatin. What is the identification of the organism? Explain the lyphostatin test.
The results of Figure 2 highlights the antibacterial activity of cacay oil. Since the method involves adding cacay oil to a "broth" medium, it can be inferred that cacay oil is hydrophilic. Agree or Not?
Can gelatin hydrolysis be correlated with the pathogenicity of a bacterium? Explain your answer. In addition to H2S production and motility, for what other test can SIM medium be used?
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]
Identify the oxidase-negative, gram negative bacillus isolated from the blood cultures of a hospitalized patient with a urinary tract infection. The organism produced colorless colonies on MacConkey agar and gives the following biochemical reactions: PAD – positive H2S – positive positive Citrate – positive Ornithine positive Lysine – negative Indole - negative Urease –
Jessie is working with a 100% stock concentration of Clorox. She decides to add 100 µL of bacteria to a tube containing 3 mL of nutrient broth and then adds 400µL of the Clorox stock to the tube as well. What is the unknown concentration of the tube?
