Although not.netes-, sarily as accunkte as the methods outlined in Standad,Methods4, the results of these analyses will generally be adequate for their,intended purpose. In a number of cases, it is not felt that there is a practical, simplified method and so:the laboratory technician is referred to Standard Methodsfor the apptopriate method's of analysis.

  • Maintenance of Bacterial Strains
    Maintenance of Bacterial Strains Short-term growth and maintenance The simplest method for obtaining strains is to order them from a microbiological supply company. Presque Isle, Ward, and Carolina Biological (see “Resources” page of the Microbes Web site: www.umsl.edu/~microbes) are economical sources of strains that are commonly used in the classroom. Another possible source is a local college or university that teaches a microbiology lab course. If they have strains already prepared for their class, they will probably be willing to provide you with a culture. This is probably not a reasonable ongoing source of strains, but can be useful in an emergency. For short-term maintenance and use, it is best to streak bacteria on some type of rich agar petri plate, such as nutrient agar. Label and date the plate on the bottom of the plate. Streak from the source culture using good sterile technique. The quadrant streak method (see the article on quadrant streaking) is good for obtaining well-isolated colonies. Incubate the plate only until good colonies have formed. Do not leave the culture in the incubator beyond that time, or the cells will die on the plate. Store the plate in the refrigerator. It will keep for about a month. For class use, it is best to streak a fresh plate 2-3 days before the strain will be needed for class. Use the fresh plate as the source of cultures for the class. For broth cultures for a class, it is best to grow a larger volume culture in a flask (if possible, with shaking) overnight and then dispense aliquots of the master culture into sterile test tubes using a sterile pipette.

  • Energy Resources: Where Are They and How Do We Get Them?
    Energy Resources: Where Are They and How Do We Get Them? SPN LESSON #5 TEACHER INFORMATION LEARNING OUTCOME: Students describe some of the many ways solar energy is converted into other forms of energy; the patterns of distribution of energy resources in the United States; and how these patterns of distribution are represented through maps. LESSON OVERVIEW: In this lesson, emphasis is on the development of interpretive skills and the use of models to reveal scientific processes. Students learn the nature of various energy resources, how they form, and the science that allows them to be discovered and extracted. Through short laboratory tasks at a series of stations, and through pencil-and-paper activities, solar, wind, water, and fossil fuel (coal) energy sources are explored. The lesson includes study of: • field maps and isolines and the information they convey; • energy conversions of sunlight into other forms of energy; • subsurface rock structures; and • why energy resources are unevenly distributed. GRADE-LEVEL APPROPRIATENESS: This Level II general energy lesson, intended for younger students, is most appropriate for grades 5–8. MATERIALS (materials needed at each station) Station 1: Coal Power Hand lenses (4) Rock specimens: • Silty shale with marine fossils [label “A”] • Limestone with marine fossils [label “D”] • Coal – bituminous with land plant fossils [label “B”] • Sandy shale with land plant fossils [label “A”] • Sandstone with land plant fossils [label “E”] Colored pencils nyserda.ny.gov/School-Power-Naturally Station 2:
