MICROBIOLOGY (E-PORTFOLIO)

Well hello there, well this week basically we have finished our lesson in Microbiology thus, this week we doing the presentation of 3MT on adopt a microbe. So basically each of us have 3 minutes to talk about our own microbe and at the end of talk there will be a QnA session.  Below is mine 3MT presentation or AKA poster : I talk about Varicella zoster virus. If you guys want to know more about it you can check out this website and this journal or article below: https://microbewiki.kenyon.edu/index.php/Varicella_zoster_virus Articles: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2919834/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4066823/ So at the end of our 3MT we need to evaluates others, means that we need to evaluate our friends on how they present their 3MT. Thats all I guess. Thank you and see you guys again.

Hello, so first of all I like to thanked my fellows member of MINIC group 12. As we very work hard on this project. I like to thanked also the lecturers for giving us the opportunity to do this project. Well I do not want to write a lot about a lot. But I can tell that this MINIC is very a good platform for people in the faculty to work together. Even though the people are all different in courses, this is the way that can make us together and create a good bond and memories together. These are some of the picture we take together. We really have fun and enjoy our time there. Even though it is very nervewrecking experience but we done it together. Below I attach some of the work that we done in our MINIC project. The padlet : (Information that we gather together) https://padlet.com/leejiawei_5383/ao4yqqlojxwj The Video:   The poster: I guess thats all for me. I hope we will meet again even though we have finish the project.

Hi guys so this week experiment will going to be the Serial dilution.  In this experiment, we will be able familiar and understand with the diverse methods used to determine the number of cells in a bacterial culture. The number of cells counted is calculated as follows: Number of cells per mm= number of cells counted X dilution X 50,000 The factor of 50,000 is used in order to determine the cell count for 1ml:1ml=1000mm 3 =(50 times the chamber depth of 0.02) X 1000. Next, we able to know how to determine quantitatively the number of viable cells in a bacterial culture. For this experiment we need to do the two procedure which are pour-plate and spread-plate. For the pour plate, we just need to pour 1ml of culture E. coli  into empty petri dish and pour the molten agar. For the spread-plate, spread the 0.1 ml culture of E. coli  into the surface of agar medium. Spread with the L-shaped bent glass rod. so thats all thank you goodbye.

This week Dr. Wan gave task to make our own quizlet. In the quizlet, we have to write the term that related to topic of Sterilization and disinfectant. After we done that, we do some game on quizlet, that involve in the group. It really fun and I enjoyed played it. I got a very easygoing and fun groupmate to work on. After that, we also do test with our own quizlet and the mark have been submit in putrablask. Below is my own quizlet, you can check it out and try it if you one.  https://quizlet.com/250462036/sterilization-disinfectants-nurul-husna-flash-cards/ That all for today, thank you and bye :)

This was our trip to Institute Bioscience, above is the picture of my classmate. We was briefing and all the explanation are all about electron microscope. Above are the explanation of Scan electron microscope and Transmission electron microscope. We enjoy ourselves when going there. I hope in future we could go to other place too.

Hello guys, so this week experiment going to be the techniques for the cultivation of anaerobic  microorganisms and atmospheric oxygen requirements. Microorganisms exhibit great diversity in their ability to use free oxygen for cellular respiration. These variation in Oxygen requirement reflect the differences in biooxidative enzyme systems present in the various species. Microorganisms can be classified into one of five major groups according to their O2 needs. Aerobes Microaerophiles Obligate anaerobes Aerotolerant anaerobes Facultative anaerobes Differentiating the aerobes and anaerobes , samples suspected of containing anaerobes need to be handled carefully and  transported promptly to a lab, where it are typically inoculated onto anaerobic blood agar plates and anaerobic broth, as well as onto MacConkey agar and aerobic blood plate. Growth on aerobic or anaerobic agars will determine oxygen requirements, while comparable growth on both aerobic and anaerobic media su
