EUKARYOTIC CELL

Hello all, this week microbiology class we learned about the eukaryotic cell. the first day of class Dr. Wan told us to create a quiz or a game about eukaryotic cell. In the group we discuss and brainwahed ourself to create this. we using Kahoot! app. to create the quiz. Kahoot! is very interesting and fun app to work on. It easy to use and very effective and fun also enjoying. Below are the link of our quiz in Kahoot!:  https://create.kahoot.it/l/#quiz/3a85e815-b0d6-4b71-bda8-458f2f295c8f

I will like to share a bit about the eukaryotic cell. there are 9 type of organelles in eukaryotic cells. there are nucleus, endoplasmic reticulum, golgi complex, lysosome, vacuoles mitochondria, chloroplast, peroxisomes, and centrosomes. Not all are found in all cells. It could be based on specialization, age and level of activity. Nucleus contain almost all the cell's hereditary information (DNA). The functions are house and protect cell's genetic information(DNA), the largest structure of the cell. RER functions are synthesis and modification of proteins. Synthesis of cell and organelle membranes. The function for SER is lipid synthesis, break down of toxic compounds. and also help develop tolerance to drugs and alcohol.






Golgi apparatus are made up cisterns, it receive proteins synthesized by rough ER. The functions are as receiving side, it receives proteins in transport vesicles from ER. Next as modifies proteins into final shape, sorts and labels them for proper transport. Lysosome formed from golgi complexes. It act as destruction of foreign material, digestion of food particles taken in by cell and etc. I think thats all I can share for this.

In our next class, Dr Wan told us to find out about the Journal that have been published and try to understand the information in the journal. Our organelle is vacuole. We find some journal related to vacuole but we choose only one you can see the journal here:  
file:///C:/Users/nurul%20husna/Downloads/212.pdf

To summarize the journal is about the Gas vacuole. The gas vacuoles functions as light shields it reduce amount of light absorbed by photosynthetic pigments, the arrangement of gas vacuoles determine whether or not they serve as light shield. It also function as floating device. It suggest that gas vacuoles may protect cells from high light intensity and decrease damage photobleaching.

That's all I can share for this week I will update more next week. See you guys later. :)

THE FIRST EXPERIMENT

Image
             Hi everyone this blog is about the experiment or practical that i do with my group members. This blog will contain all the conclusion or summary of the experiment and also as reflection and the things that i newly found out. So last  Tuesday, my member and I do practical ambout the CULTURE TRANSFER TECHNIQUE. Which is that we just learn the technique of culturing and how to prevent it from contamination.              Above are the procedure on how to culturing. We got to transfer into three media which is  S. marcescens, broth culture "A" and broth culture "B". It transfer into  slant to broth transfer, broth to slant transfer and slant to agar deep transfer.          After we subculture it we wait for the next day to observe the results. The next day,  the result is observe below are the result that I obtain. S. marcescens to Nutrient Agar Deep S. marcescens  to Nutrient Broth S. marcescens  to Nutrient Agar Slant Broth culture "A" to Nutrien

First week in Microbiology class

Image
First day of class Microbiology (13/9/2017)            It is the first day class of microbiology. I'm slightly nervous and excited of what will we going through today. As our lecturer Dr. Wan came, she briefly introduces herself and she started to ask us question. She also told us to make 9 group which contain in a group 1 Malaysia. I'm in a group of 5 people. She throw a few question to us about microorganisms and the group of microorganisms. I feel flustered when suddenly Dr. Wan just ask us question without we learn anything but she said that it is her own ways to teach us which is the "Ask question style". She also said that once we go inside the the room, we also going inside the microbiology world.                    On that day, we also learn about the biggest bacteria in the world. It is Thimargarita namibiensis.  Is a gram negative coccoid Proteobacterium, found in ocean sediments of the contenential shelf of Namibia (Source: Wikipedi

Measurement & Motility of Microorganisms

Image
Hi and welcome to my blog. so our last practical class we did the experiment of measurement of microorganisms and the examination of microorganisms using hanging drop and wet mount.  The  hanging drop technique  is a well-established method for examining living, unstained, very small organisms. The traditional procedure employs a glass slide with a circular concavity in the centre into which a  drop  of fluid, containing the 'microorganisms', hangs from a coverslip. Meanwhile for   In a  wet mount , the specimen is placed in a drop of water or other liquid held between the slide and the cover slip by surface tension. This method is commonly used, for example, to view microscopic organisms that grow in pond water or other liquid media, especially when studying their movement and behavior. preparation of hanging-drop Preparing wet mount Meanwhile for the practical of measurement of microorganisms, we need ocular micrometer and stage micrometer. first we need to find the calibrati
