This experiment aims to determine if heterotrophic bacteria are present in the lab. The objectives are to define bacterial morphology terms, describe eubacterial characteristics, identify and classify observed organisms, and distinguish Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Sterile cotton swabs are used to collect samples from surfaces in the lab that are then grown on nutrient agar plates with different treatments, including a control with no treatment. The plates are incubated for 4 days and then observed to see if bacteria colonies grew, which would indicate their presence in the lab.

BACTERIA (HETEROTROPHIC EUBACTERIA) : ARE BACTERIA PRESENT IN THE LAB?
OBJECTIVES I. Define coccus bacillus,spirilllum, Gram stain; II. Describe and explain characteristics of eubacteria; III. Identify and classify the organisms studied in this exercise; IV. Distinguish Gram-Positive and Gram-Negative bacteria, indicating their susceptibility to certain antibodies.
INTRODUCTION The Eubacteria and protistans are among the simplest of living organisms. Both kingdoms have unicellular organisms within them, but thats where the similarity ends. The members of the kingdoms Eubacteria are prokaryotic organisms, meaning that their DNA is free in the cytoplasm, unbounded by a membrane. They lack organelles (cytoplasmic structures surrounded by membranes). By contrast, the kingdom Protista consist of eukaryotic organisms : the genetic material contained within the nucleus and many of their cellular components are compartmentalized into membrane-bound organelles. Kingdom Eubacteria Eubacteria are such organisms as bacteria and cyanobacteria. Most bacteria are hetetrophic, dependent upon an outside source for nutrition, while cyanobacteria are autotrophic, able to produce their own carbohydrates.
MATERIALS dH 2 o in dropping bottle, 4 nutrient agar culture plates, sterile cotton swab, china marker, 2 bottles labelled A and B (A contains tap water, B contains 70% ethyl alcohol), transparent adhesive tape, paper towels
PROCEDURE 1. Four petri dishes containing sterile nutrient agar are obtained. Using a china marker, one dish is labelled as DISH 1 : CONTROL, DISH 2 : DRY SWAB, DISH 3 : TREATMENT A and DISH 4 : TREATMENT B and the group member names are also included. 2. A sterile cotton swab is ran often over a surface within the lab bench and lab floor. 3. The lid on DISH 2 is lifted as little as is necessary to run the swab over the surface of the agar. 4. The lid is taped securely to the bottom half of the dish. 5. One paper towel is soaked with Liquid A and the second paper towel with Liquid B. The paper towel that contain Liquid A and Liquid B are wiped down one-half of the surface that will be examined. 6. Then, two cotton swab are ran at the two places that had been wiped down by Liquid A and Liquid B. 7. The first cotton swab that contained Liquid A treatment is swab on the surface of DISH 3, and the second cotton swab that contained Liquid B treatment on the DISH 4. 8. All the dish plates are placed in the incubator oven for 4 days. 9. The results are recorded.
