Faculty Advisors:
Frank Chaplen, Charla Triplett, & Mohen Choodamani
The goal of this project is to show how the
presence of anti-bacteria affects the growth of resistant
bacteria.
Grow equal amounts of e.coli into one flask
containing media and another flask containing media and Kanamycin
(antibiotic).
Construct a growth curve showing cell quantity vs. time and color
vs. time
Tests:
Dilute cultures at various times and take the
optical density (O.D.) at each time to measure the growth.
Count the number of colonies after 24 hours of incubation.
RESULTS
plot of cell quantity vs. time.
plot of color vs. time.
