Bacteria can be Found Everywhere https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gEwzDydciWc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-RuZcdA9GXg
Objectives: to take bacterial swabs from places around Ironwood Ridge. to inoculate (swab) Petri dish with bacterial culture and monitor growth to count bacterial colonies to find out where bacteria are the most numerous to determine what kind of environmental conditions influence bacterial growth
Materials: 1 Petri dish with agar per group (of 4) cotton Q-tips Masking Tape (parafilm) Grease pencil (sharpie) Incubator
Procedure: 1. Write your groups’ initials and period along the outside edge of the Petri dish (DO NOT OPEN IT YET!) 2. I’ll divide the divide the dish into 4 equal parts with a sharpie & number 1-4. Do not label the lids of dishes because they can easily fall off and be mixed up.
Bottom of the Petri dish!!!!
Don’t touch these with your fingertips, you will contaminate your sample
CONTROL!!! No swab… NO Sample!!!
-----------STOP--------------------- Hypothesis: Where do you think you will find the highest amount of bacteria? What do you think the Petri dish will look like in 2-3 days? -----------STOP---------------------
