Question
Answer
materials presented here were used to carry out a technique called ___ allowing students to transfer a pattern of bacterial colonies from one plate to many other plates   replica plating  
🗑
Replica plating is easy to use and requ9ires less ___ tan would be needed if each colony was transferred individually and streaked onto a plate   time and materials  
🗑
mannitol salt agar (MS) contains 7.5% NaCl and is selective for halophiles like __ and __   Micrococcus and Staphylococcus  
🗑
MSA contains phenol red and allows differentation of bacteria of their abbility to ferment __   mannitol  
🗑
organisms that can ferment mannitol and form acid will turn medium   yellow  
🗑
organisms that cannot ferment mannitol turn the medium   no color change, it will remain red  
🗑
Tergitol-7 and Mac Conkey agar are __ media because the promote the growht of Gram - bacteria while inhibiting the growth of other organisms   selective media  
🗑
Tergitol-7 and Mac Conkey agar are also ___ as they cause fermentative organisms of form colonies that look diff then those of non fermentative   differential  
🗑
the carbohydrate in the Tergitol-7 and Mac Conkey media is   lactose  
🗑
lactose fermenting colonies will be what color on Mac vs T-7   pink on Mac and yellow on T-7  
🗑
Non fermenting forms will be what color on MAC vs T-7   pale tan or yellowish on MAC and blue on T-7  
🗑
whya re viable cells the only ones that can be counted   only viable cells are capable of growing into colonies that can be seen and counted. Individual cells can't be seen with naked eyes (alive or dead)  
🗑
microorganisms that require O2 to grow are obligately aerobic and use a ___ type metabolism   respiratory  
🗑
tubes with repiratory organisms will be what color (also in Durham tube)   green under vaspar seal and inside Durham tube  
🗑
Tues containing fermentative organisms will be what color   yellow  
🗑
yellow color toward top of unseald tube is doe to the production of   aerobic acid  
🗑
organisms able to ferment the carbohydrate will be what color and due to what   yellow color due to acid production  
🗑
what evidence is visible withing the fermetative tube   gas producion (split, bubbles or cracks in medium)  
🗑
organisms not capbale of germenting the carbohydrate will be what color using peptone in medium   no color change , mediym will remain red  
🗑
tubes contain glucose and a buffer tend to inhibit pH change. The pH indicator used is __ and is added to culture after 48H of incubation   methyl red  
🗑
organisms that are capable of producing large amounts of __ test positive as they overcome the effects of the buffer   acid  
🗑
tube containing organisms not capable of acid production will be what color when methyl red indicator is added   yellow  
🗑
tube containing organisms capable of acid production will turn __ when methyl red indicator is added   red  
🗑
TSI can me used to demonstrate the ability of certain bacteria to catabolize __ that contain sulfur   amino acid  
🗑
Organisms able to catabolize amino acid that contain sulfur will produce a gaseouse end product called   hydrogen sulfide  
🗑
hydrogen sulfide will bind with iron in the media and form a precipitate called   iron sulfide  
🗑
organism that the can form iron sulfide the tubes are what color   black  
🗑
SIM media can be used to determine if bacteria are capable of H2S production, indole production and __   motility  
🗑
Kovac's reagent was added to SIM to determine if that bacteria could catabolize ___ to form indole   tryptophan (amino acid)  
🗑
tubbes used to determin if bacteria could ___ (remove a COOH- group from the amino acid lysine   decarboxylate  
🗑
Bacteria that can decarboxylate lysine will form CO2 and ___   amine (cadaverine)  
🗑
bacteria that are capable of producing cadaverine will color tubes   yellow in control and lysine tube is purple  
🗑
bacteria not capable of producing cadaverine will color tubes   both tubes are yellow  
🗑
2 reasons a vaspar seal was used in the amino acid tubes with lysine and the control   the vaspar seal is applied to create an anaerobic environment and to ensure glucose fermentation and the seal also keeps volatile amines inside  
🗑
to determine if bacteria form urease and enzyme that can be used to convert urea into __   ammonia  
🗑
___ tes is used to determine if bacteria are able to form an enzyme called cytochrome C   oxidase test  
🗑
this enzyme is associated with the electron transport chain and was used in the oxidase test   cytochrome C  
🗑
tubes containing coagulated (solidified) plasma were inoculated with organisms capable of forming   coagulase enzymes  
🗑
tubes containing liquid plasma had organisms incapable of forming   coagulase enzymes  
🗑
catalase test was used to distinguish between various types of   Gram positive cocci  
🗑
The reagent used to conduct a catalase test is   hydrogen peroxide 3%  
🗑
a positive catalase reaction is indicated by the formation of   bubbles  
🗑
___ is an enzyme formed by huperthermophilic bacteria called Thermus aquaticus   Taq polymerase  
🗑
__ is a method that is used to amplify segments of DNA in vitro   PCR plymerase chain reaction  
🗑
bacteria that produce thermostable DNA polymerase enzymes were originallly found   yellowstone national park  
🗑
why is it important that the enzymes used in the PCR be thermostable   enzymes not stable at high temps would be denatured by the PCR treatment  
🗑
small sengments of DNA that are used for PCR and bind to single stranded DNA are called   oligonuclotide primers  
🗑
___ provide the free 3' end for DNA replication and they determine which region of the template DNA strand will be amplified   primers  
🗑
we extrancted small extrachromosomal loops of DNA called ___ from JM83 andJM101   plasmids  
🗑
plasmids contain genes referred to as maker genes that code for resistance to   ampicillin (an antibiotic)  
🗑
enzymes that can cut double stranded DNA by breaking phosphodiester bonds are called   restriction endonucleases  
🗑
for digestion ex we used Escherichia coli strain RY13 called ___   EcoRI  
🗑
EcoRI cut double stranded DNA between G and A baring nucleotieds forming ___ or sticky ends   cohesive termini  
🗑
and ezyme that prevents the digestion of DNA by adding methyl groups to certain bases are   modification enzymes (methylases)  
🗑
RFLP means   restriction fragment lenght polymorphism  
🗑
how are RFLP created   cutting DNA with restriction enzymes  
🗑
You know the electrophoresis chamber is in the correct position if   wells are located at the end of the chamber farthest from the anode (positive electrode).  
🗑
