Paragraph 1 In experiment 2‚ the statistical analysis of data collected showed that Clorox Household Cleaner was not significantly different than the Clorox Toilet Bowl cleaner. This is due to the fact our calculated P-value was 11.45%‚ which is larger than the 5% maximum allowed to us to be able to support the alternative hypothesis. This indicates there was not support for our alternative hypothesis‚ causing us to reject it. In doing so‚ we had to accept our null hypothesis. Our Null hypothesis

Communicable Disease Paper Tuberculosis Communicable diseases rely on fluid exchange‚ contaminated substance‚ or close contact to travel from an infected carrier to a healthy individual. Many people have never heard of a disease called tuberculosis (TB) or not fully aware how serious this disease really is. I will briefly summarize the research that was conducted on tuberculosis by describing the disease in details and discussing efforts to control it‚ indentify environmental factors related

PraShawn Hampton Period:1 Barbracide in the Salon Back in 1947 in New York‚ Maurice King prepared a chemical product that would help take sanitation to another level. Barbracide is a big reason why most salons and barbershops are still open today. Barbicide helps remove all of the bacteria and germs off of barbershop and salon implements such as: razors‚ combs‚ hair clips‚ and sanitizes stations. The iconic blue liquid is well known for being a disinfectant‚ but as well as that‚ the use of barbicide

General information: What is E.coli? Escherichia coli‚ or commonly referred to as E.coli is a foodborne pathogen that normally inhabits in the intestinal track of humans and animals. It is the most common and wide spread infecting organism and is in the family‚ Enterobacteriaceae. Enterobacteriaceae is a large family of Gram-negative bacteria‚ meaning the bacteria appear pinkish or red. How fast and how does it spread? The main way that E.coli can spread is through food and water supply. Common

Dr. Barry James Marshall is an Australian physician who is significant for discovering Helicobacter Pylori (H. pylori) as the most common cause of peptic ulcers. Scientists and physicians ridiculed Dr. Marshall for his idea at the time. During the time Dr. Marshall began his work‚ the scientific community agreed that peptic ulcers were the result of various phenomena such as stress‚ spicy food and the stomach overproducing acid. Scientists at the time also believed it was impossible for bacteria

Decubitus/pressure ulcers Kailea D. Ferrell Anatomy and Physiology Decubitus ulcers or pressure sores are common with individuals who are bedridden‚ use a wheelchair‚ or are unable to change their position. This type of lesion is most likely on areas of the body where the bone lies close to the skin such as hips‚ ankles‚ backs‚ elbows‚ and heels. Pressure ulcers can cause life-threatening infection and are common in individuals in nursing homes. Signs & Symptoms:

OBJECTIVE The objective of this lab was to determine the effects of two unknown drugs on the microtubule pathways in COS-7 cells through the process of immunostaining. METHOD Before arrival‚ the COS-7 cells were grown in culture dishes submerged in a growth medium that contained bovine serum. Two coverslips covered in the COS-7 cells were provided. After washing the coverslip with Phosphate Buffer Saline (PBS)‚ one coverslip was treated with the control solution‚ and the other was treated with

This experiment tested the growth of E.coli with inserted plasmid on an agar plate with Ampicillin. One colony of E.coli resistant to Ampicillin was grown during this experiment. The overall goal of the experiment was to successfully grow E.coli on the agar plate‚ which would show that the plasmid had been effectively inserted into the bacteria’s genes. This experiment helped students understand how plasmids were inserted into bacteria and used in real life situations. It also showed how the bacteria’s
