Task 2
Introduction
In this series of experiments, we attempt to categorize and identify different traits of 3 individual bacteria:
Escherichia Coli, Staphylococcus Epidermidis, and Saccharomyces Cerevisiae, using an aseptic technique. The aseptic technique is defined a “
Aseptic techniques refer to any method used to sterilize and maintain the sterility of an object or location, such as an operating theatre or laboratory”
(Greenwood,
2019). This ensures the integrity of the experiment and the results. Failure to use an aseptic technique can skew results and lead to false conclusions. Materials -Large cooking pot

Step 6: Pour approximately one tablespoon of alcohol onto your work surface and use a paper towel to spread the alcohol and sterilize the area. Step 7: Open one petri dish onto your work surface, open and pour one half of a test tube of your nutrient agar into the corresponding petri dish. Repeat until all agars have been poured.
Step 8: Allow agar to cool, untouched in the petri dishes until solidified. Plates should remain inverted until inoculated. When agar is cooled and solid, it is ready to be used in an experiment. Step 9: Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water.
Method 2: Culturing Microbes in Broth
Step 1: Gather supplies.
Step 2: Wash hands thoroughly with soap and water.
Step 3: Put on PPE (gloves, goggles, apron, and face mask)
Step 4: Prepare the work surface by wiping it down with 1:9 bleach water solution.
Step 5: Pour a bucket of bleach for item disposal.
Step 6: Fill a disposable cup with alcohol and place it on your work surface.
Step 7: Place the pipet in the alcohol and squeeze some alcohol into the stem. Leave the pipet in the cup
with the alcohol in the stem.
Step 8: Place the tea candle on the work surface and light the wick.
Step 9: Use a marker to label a nutrient broth tube Escherichia Coli and place it on the work surface.
Step 10: Expel the alcohol from the pipet and shake it dry. Keep the pipet in your hand and don’t allow it to touch anything, as it is now sterile. Step 11: Remove the top from the labelled nutrient broth and pass the rim through the flame of the candle to sterilize it.
Step 12: Place the vial upright on the work surface and repeat with the e coli culture vial.
Step 13: Pipet 0.25mL of nutrient broth into the e coli culture vial, being careful not to touch the sterilized
rim on either vial with your gloves or the pipet. Step 14: Replace the lid on the culture vial and shake until the tablet dissolves. Step 15: Pipet the dissolved tablet and nutrient broth solution into the nutrient broth vial, being careful not
to touch the sterilized rim with the pipet or your gloves.
Step 16: Hold the rim of the nutrient broth vial in the flame again to sterilize it and screw the cap back on.
Set the broth aside.
Step 17: Place the pipet in the alcohol cup, squeeze alcohol into the stem, and leave the pipet in the cup.
Step 18: Repeat steps 9-17 with the Staphylococcus Epidermidis culture vial using a new broth tube labelled Staphylococcus Epidermidis.
Step 19: Open the yeast packet and place ½ teaspoon of the powdered contents into an empty disposable cup.
Step 20: Add ¼ cup warm water to the yeast and swirl until dissolved.
Step 21: Allow the cup to sit for 10 minutes until it begins to froth.
Step 22: Label a new broth tube Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Repeat steps 10-11 with the Saccharomyces cerevisiae broth tube.
Step 23: Pipet 0.25mL of the yeast solution into the nutrient broth tube, being careful not to touch the rim of the tube with the pipet or your gloves.
Step 25: Hold the rim of the nutrient broth vial in the flame again to sterilize it and screw the cap back on.
Set the broth aside.
Step 26: Extinguish the candle.
Step 27: Sterilize the pipet in the alcohol and store with the candle, goggles, mask, and apron for the rest of the experiments.
Step 28: Pour the remaining alcohol in the sink, dispose of the cup.
Step 29: Place the two empty culture vials and the cup of yeast into the bucket of bleach. Remove the items after 3 minutes and dispose of them in the garbage. Pour bleach down the sink. Step 30: Wipe the work surface down with 1:9 bleach water solution.
Step 31: Identify a location in your home where the broth tubes can incubate, upright and untouched, for approximately 48 hours. The location should be room temperature (21°C-25°C), away from heating or air-conditioning vents, out of direct sunlight, and secure from children and pets. An empty cabinet works well. If a countertop is used, place cultures in a box, such as your empty HOL box. Use the thermometer to determine whether the location meets the requirement of 21°C-25°C, if not, identify a new location.
Step 32: Remove PPE. Store apron, mask, and goggle, discard gloves. Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water.

Step 4: Wipe down your work surface with 1:9 bleach water solution. Pour a bucket of bleach for item disposal. Step 5: Fill a small disposable cup halfway with alcohol and place the 3 inoculation loops in the cup, loop
side down. Step 6: Label the agar side of the plate with the name of the microbe it will contain. Step 7: Light the candle and place it on the work surface.
Step 8: Place the agar plate next to the broth tube and remove the plate lid. Step 9: Remove an inoculation loop from the alcohol and shake it dry.
Step 10: While holding the inoculation loop in your hand away from touching anything, uncap the Escherichia Coli broth and pass the rim through the flame to sterilize it. Step 11: Submerge the sterile loop into the broth being careful not to touch the rim with the loop or your gloves.
Step 12: Immediately transfer the broth adhering to the loop into one quadrant of the agar plate using a zig zag motion. Replace the lid of the agar plate.
Step 13: Put the inoculation loop in the alcohol cup.
Step 14: Flame the rim of the broth and close the cap.
Step 15: Remove the inoculation loop from the alcohol and shake to dry.
Step 16: Open the lid of the agar plate and touch the loop to the edge of the inoculated quadrant to transfer the microbes to the next quadrant. Replace the lid of the agar plate.
Step 17: Place the inoculation loop in the cup of alcohol.
Step 18: After 20 seconds, remove the inoculation loop from the alcohol and shake to dry.
Step 19: Repeat steps 16 and 17 until all 4 quadrants have been streaked.

Results
In the Methyl Red test, my Escherichia Coli sample resulted in a pink/orange color which translated to a positive test result, my Staphylococcus Epidermidis also showed a pink/orange color and indicated a positive test result. (See image 4). In the Voges-Proskauer test my Escherichia Coli tube and my Staphylococcus Epidermidis tube both had a red line on top, this indicated a positive test result.

In the Catalase test the Escherichia Coli sample showed no oxygen bubbles on the slide, this indicated a negative result. The Staphylococcus Epidermidis sample showed oxygen bubbles on the slide, indicating a positive result. In the Motility Test, both the Escherichia Coli and the Staphylococcus Epidermidis samples had mushy and messy agar with growth in them, this indicated a positive result.
In my Carbohydrate Test, Staphylococcus Epidermidis showed a pink tube with no bubble for glucose and mannitol, a fermenter result. Staphylococcus Epidermidis showed a yellow tube with no bubble for fructose, a fermenter result. Saccharomyces cerevisiae showed a yellow tube with no bubble for both the fructose and the glucose, a fermenter result. Saccharomyces cerevisiae showed a pink tube with a bubble for the mannitol, a fermenter with gas production result. Discussion
I believe that my Escherichia Coli culture was successful and the methyl red test and Voges-Proskauer test results were accurate. My Staphylococcus epidermidis culture may have been compromised in some way because my Methyl red test came back positive however, upon conducting some research, I concluded that was an incorrect result. (Aryal, 2019) My Escherichia Coli result for the Voges-Proskauer test was identical to my Staphylococcus Epidermidis result and this implied I had also gotten an incorrect result, as proven by the same website I had found the previous information in. My Catalase test followed suit of the previous test by producing one incorrect test result, the Escherichia
Coli test should have been positive as well as the Staphylococcus Epidermidis. (Aryal et al., 2018)
My Motility Test was compromised because the agar was missing, I used nutrient agar at my instructor’s
suggestion but then, I misunderstood the images in the instructions and poured agar plates instead of leaving it in the tube. Escherichia Coli should have tested positive for Motility but Staphylococcus Epidermidis should have tested negative.
My Carbohydrate Testing was verified by my research. I believe that my results were the correct conclusions and that my experiment was successful. (Chujo et al., 2015)
All in all, I believe it is very difficult to conduct successful experiments in a home environment without the supervision of trained staff who know what they are doing and without a sterile environment that can be clear of dogs and children. Resources
