3-nitrooxypropanol Report

Introduction Sheep, cattle, goats, and some wild animals such as antelopes and their families that are predominantly known as ruminants ferment plant material in their rumen. The result of this fermentation process is the formation of propionate, CO2, acetate, butyrate, and methane (Alexander et al., 2015). The carbon dioxide and methane formed escape from the bodies of these animals into the atmosphere.3-nitrooxypropanol is believed to inhibit methanogenesis in ruminant, an action that has various applications and benefits to the environment and animals. This report will consider the need for and application of the 3-nitrooxypropanol and how it would work ...

Bacteria refer to the regnum of prokaryotes (Sundararaj, Mudaliar, Anthoniraj, Kannan, Muthukaruppan). For the current moment, it accounts for more than ten thousand kinds of bacteria. The bacterium is recognized as one of the most ancient of living organisms, arising about 3.9 – 3.5 billion years ago. Bacteria have the substantial variation in the ways of metamorphic and energetic metabolism. Thus, autotrophs can synthesize all necessary organic molecules from non-organic compounds, whereas heterotrophs demand active organic compounds to transform them. The biggest degree of heterotrophs belongs to intracellular parasites. They are called saprophytes (Sundararaj, Mudaliar, Anthoniraj, Kannan, Muthukaruppan) and can ...

Introduction

Waste is generated as a result of a lot of physical, chemical, and biological processes. Dumping it at some appropriate place is one option. However, ecological effects of throwing away waste products are becoming a serious concern these days. In order to minimize waste, the best strategy is to transform it into valuable products . Plenty of research studies have been carried out to utilize waste effectively. The aim of this report is analysis of the proposed methods for the utilization of common forms of wastes for useful purposes. We also recommend better alternatives to help create a lesser negative ...

Cellular respiration equation:

C6H12O6+6O2→6CO2+6H2O+38ATP. Glucose+Oxygen→Carbon dioxide+Water+38ATP.

Photosynthesis equation:

6CO2+6H2O+sunlight, nutrients→C6H12O6+6O2. Carbon dioxide+Water→Glucose+Oxygen. Respiration and photosynthesis are opposite processes. It means that products of cellular respiration are reactants of photosynthesis and vice versa: the products of photosynthesis are reactants for cellular respiration. It is known that plants are autotrophs. Thus, they have to realize cellular respiration because they need energy for their existence. Due to cellular respiration, they receive energy, which is used to make organic compounds (glucose) and oxygen during photosynthesis. From the other side, people are heterotrophs. They ...

In the present assignment we are to answer the question on whether yeast needs air to make bread rise. First off, we need to come up with a hypothesis, and we believe that it does for it is a metabolism process which may not take place without air. Now let us see whether we are right in our assumption or not. Actually, we are and that is why. It is well known that yeast brings about fermentation processes - we ourselves have proven it experimentally. Yeast takes part in this fermentation process due to its interaction with such components ...

Identification of the Unknown Microorganisms

Unknown #1 Unknown #2 1. The identification of bacterial strains is a common practice in clinical and medical fields. The ubiquitously present microorganisms can be both, beneficial or harmful to the host they attack or inhabit. Since times, several biochemical characteristics have been identified for many bacteria that commonly are related to humans. These characteristics and morphology have been arranged in a systematic way to identify the targeted unknown microorganism along with ruling out the ones giving negative results for the characteristic tests. This way the search was narrowed down for each of the two unknown microorganisms. The Gram ...

Vodka

Vodka

Background Introduction

Vodka remains one of the most consumed alcoholic drinks in the world despite undergoing multiple reinventions. The drink is distilled from vegetables or grain mash fermentation. From the high proof fermentation, the alcohol content is measured. A half percentage of alcohol can be measured by a single proof degree. From these metrics, percentages of alcohol content in a bottle can then be established. For example, 100 level proof has 50% alcohol, 90% proof has 45% alcohol, and the rest follows proportionally. Distilled vodka sometimes reaches proof of up to 145 high. At such levels, vodka is a neutral ...

A drug is a substance that brings about physiological effects when introduced into the body of a human being. Drug analysis deals with the technical process of determining the presence or the absence of particular parent drugs or in other words their metabolites. Drugs are classified into various groups, and these include depressants, stimulants, and hallucinogens. For an individual to use these types of drugs, various reasons may contribute to this and can be elaborated through specific theories. Depressants are drugs that when introduced to the body lowers the neural transmission levels thus depressing the stimulation or arousal in ...

Biotechnology has emerged as a major field few decades back but the art of science behind biotechnology primarily emerged with the discovery of natural process of fermentation by microorganisms. The microscopic world of microbes is diverse and huge as they are of multiple types classified into genus and species based on their morphological, biochemical and genetic abilities. They are helpful as well as harmful to the extremes for humans in many ways. Despite continuous efforts by biologists, their identity has been ambiguous and still a lot is waiting to be explored. Only 0.5% of the microbial world is known ...

INTRODUCTION:

Pathologists or microbiologists play a very vital role in the management and diagnosis of any disease. They get immense help by performing certain series of tests which aids them reaching to a conclusion. One such test is called as gram staining which is used widely as the most primitive test for the identification of various bacteria According to Beveridge, the gram stain essentially delineates bacteria into two broad categories. It does that by giving color to these bacteria and bacteria that attains purple or violet color are ...

Humankind records show that one of the oldest beverage in existence to date is beer. Beer can be described as an intoxicating beverage produced by a process called fermentation. There is also an array of types of beers, this dictated by the different methods of preparation, raw materials and flavours included in brewing. The types of beer’s are as follows; ales, lagers, stouts and porters as well as malts. The consumption of a beer in a local bar begins from the brewery which acquire necessary resources, convert them to the taste akin the type and flavor of beer ...

Abstract

The experiment was performed to analyze the outcomes of temperature on the ability of fungal and bacterial amylase to breakdown starch to maltose. Therefore, the study will reveal the optimal temperature for amylase activity. The initial steps include preparing the materials and tools used during the experiment. A timetable for comparing temperature and function was generated. Test tubes and plates were properly labeled. Iodine was needed for every spot plate so that the fungal amylase, bacterial amylase, fungal amylase and the starch solution can be added to the iodine in a time and temperature dependent fashion. Observing ...

Introduction:

The bacterial negative gram bacilli group Enterobacterriaceae have both motile and non-mitole relationships with peritrichouse flagella. Both types of bacteria, however, have the ability to fermet glucose and get nitrite from nitrates, as well as produce gas. They are a common find in greenhouses, and there are hundreds of species of this microorganism, including Proteus, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella, Salmonella Enterobacter, pneomoniae, etc. The pathogenic types of this bacteria have the ability to bring about diseases in animals and humans.

In this test, two varying types of Enterobacteriaceae will be identified (Klebsiella pneumonia and Escherichia coli. This will be accomplished ...
