TASK 1. From a 100-mL algal culture, 100-μL was mixed with 900-µL dilution buffer. From this dilution, 10-μL was mixed with 10-μL of Trypan Blue, and was transferred to a hemocytometer counting chamber. Following the same lab rules in the video, determine the percent cell viability if all 5 squares had the same count as the square below (show your solution): 2. Determine the concentration of the original 100-mL algal culture in cells/mL (show your solution). 3. Research on what DAPI staining is and discuss its current applications in cell biology experiments.

Sample Station 1 This is an Eosin Methylene Blue (EMB) streaked with a pure culture. Looking at the growth and color in the image, answer the following: A. What is the expected Gram reaction and morphology of this organism? B. What does the color of the growth tell you about the organism's ability to ferment lactose to acids?
how did you get 104 as the dilution factor? I got 10-2 as the dilution factor for the CNFL plate
Case Study #6: A 20 year old male college student develops a fever after gall bladder surgery and has a pus exudate around the incision. You receive a cotton swab of the exudate which you streak on a blood agar plate. Bacterial colonies on the plate show B hemolysis, and microscopic examination reveals Gram + cocci occurring singly, in pairs, and in short chains. Further testing reveals that the isolate is catalase negative and phenol red fermentation broth with mannitol turns yellow. 1. What is the name of the most likely bacterium causing this infection? 2. What is the most likely place that this bacterium originated to cause this infection?
Case Study: You are asked to inoculate lactose media (broth) with E. coli that was growing exponentially in glucose media (broth). You monitor the growth of these cells in the lactose broth using a viable plate count technique and plot the Growth Curve for E. coli growing c lactose. After a day of monitoring the cells, you note that the culture entered into lag phase growth initially and is now currently growing exponentially. In addition, you find that the cultures doubling time is 30 minutes. You know that the doubling time of E. coli in glucose media is 20 minutes. You did not change the oxygen content or temperature at Which you were growing the cells, E. coli is still aerobically respiring at 37°C. Question: If the lac operon is 'on' what does this imply about the cell? O The cell is dying and the lac operon is going to induce apoptosis. Apoptosis is truly cell death and the cells will enter into the death phase of the Growth Curve. O Lactose is being catabolized and glucose is no…
