BSC 1010 Lab: Bacterial Pictures

Posted: November 1, 2011 in BSC 1010 Lab

Hello!  For those of you who saw the bacterial plates in person, you won’t believe these pictures!  I think the bacteria was not given long enough to incubate.  I think the zones of inhibition are clearly evident in the antimicrobial 1-6 plates.  You can see what tables are represented in the pictures, and realize that the only unlabeled plates are from table 1.  :)   So…for your quiz next week, November 5, you should expect to see a picture similar to the one you made for testing various substances and being able to determine which antibiotic/antiseptic/antimicrobial substance works the best or worst.  For my ease, I would appreciate if one person from each table would comment to this post by stating where you took your samples for your 1-4 plates and what 1-5 substances were on your 1-6 plates.  I know you have sent this info to me, but it will be easier if everyone can just look at the pictures and comments while in one place.  Thanks much and I will see you Monday!  Have a great weekend!
