Day 10

Lab Day 10

We checked our results from the day before, our lab group samples.

Nasal Swab on the Mannitol Salt Plate:

There was growth on the plate however, there was no yellow coloration on the plate. Therefore there was no MRSA present in the sample.

Throat Swab on the Blood Agar Plate:

There was beta-hemolysis on the blood agar plate, meaning that there was Staphylococcus present. However, we placed a bacitracin tablet on the plate to check if it is Group A or Group B Staph.

Urine Sample on the EMB Plate:

There was no growth on the plate therefore there is no E. coli in the the sample that we collected.

Then we wanted to check to see if our bacteria was resistant or non resistant to specific antibiotics.

We placed 5 tablets into a plate of our specimen:

P: 7mm in diameter,

Neomycin: 15mm in diameter, intermediate

Cinnamon Oil: 25 mm

Tetracycline: 20mm very sensitive to Pro sysnthesis

Augmentin: 23mm very affective

Lemon Oil: didn't wok at all

Real Time PCR- sero conversion- present antibodies against antigens

We completed an Antibody-Antigen Reaction in Agar exercise, and we Tested for Food Purity.
