TRUE or FALSE only! 1. Pure cultures contain only a single species and no other organisms. 2. Pour plate method is done by pipetting liquified warm agar into a petri dish containing an inoculum. 3. Flaming the test tube’s mouth is necessary so that the moisture that accumulated will evaporate. 4. After Gram staining, the Gram positive bacteria will appear blue while the Gram negative bacteria will appear red.

This was mixed well in a blender. One-tenth of a mL of this slurry was added to 9.9 mL of sterile buffer. After thorough mixing, this suspension was further diluted by successive 1/100 and 1/10 dilutions. One-tenth of a mL of this final solution was plated onto Plate Count agar. After incubation 145 colonies were present. How many colony-forming units were present in the total 10 gram sample of hamburger?

Answer TRUE OR FALSE only. 1. All types or kinds of media powder has a standard ratio of 23:1000. Meaning that 1000 ml of water is needed to dissolve 23 grams of powder medium. 2. Simple stains use one dye and cannot differentiate various types of bacteria while differential stains use several dyes in order to differentiate between different kinds of bacteria. 3. A certain student prepared his fixed sample for examination by pouring Nigrosin which is an acidic stain. He then observed that under the microscope the background was stained but the bacterial cells were untouched. This student therefore adapted the acid-fast staining procedure. 4. In doing serial dilutions, the original sample must be shaken at least 25 times to obtain a uniform distribution of organisms. 5. Label all reagents with its name, concentration and date of its preparation except for water.
TRUE OR FALSE 1. The antheridium of a moss could be seen as a whole mount at 100x magnification. 2. The fine adjustment knob sharpens the image in all objectives. 3. While disinfecting the isolation room with UV light, stay inside so that your hands and clothes will also be sterilized.
