what are some of the strengths and weaknesses to using a Culture dependent enumeration approach from a microbial perspective
You are tasked with quantifying bacteria in your soil sample. You resuspend 1.0g of soil in 10 ml 1x PBS, then do a 10-fold serial dilution of your soil sample. You plate 150 µl onto each plate. The 104 dilution plate contains 175 colonies after 2 days of incubation, how many bacteria do you estimate were present in your initial soil sample? (# colonies/volume plated in ul) * dilution factor * ul convert to ml * volume suspended soil (ml/g) = Read the formatting instructions below before entering your answer! 1. Make sure your answer is in correct scientific notation using an "e" to indicate the exponent! For example, 2500 would be 2.5e3, 0.0066 would be 6.6e-3. 2. For answers greater than 1, round up to the nearest tenth. For example, 2515 would be 2.5e3 and 51510 would be 5.2e4.
This is a microbiology question. please help.
Answer the following questions briefly and concisely 1.How do bacteria in a chemostat and those in a batch culture vary from one another? 2. What happens in a chemostat if the dilution rate is higher than the organism's maximum specific growth rate? 3.Does a chemostat require the use of pure cultures? 4. Why would a complicated culture media for Leuconostoc mesenteroides be simpler to make than one with a fixed chemical composition?
Describe how you would execute this first stage from the point you are handed the nutrient broth tube containing the mixed culture, through to the appearance of two colony types on a nutrient agar plate. Assume you have all the necessary equipment and materials at your disposal. Be concise, but thorough; limit yourself to a short paragraph (1/4-1/2 page at most) – include the method and techniques; what you expect to see, and how you would avoid contamination during the process.
After inoculating and incubating an agar slant from a pure broth culture of a bacterial species such as E. coli, which of the following would indicate an unsuccessful aseptic transfer?
