Best career in the world. If you can get an internship in a lab, I encourage you to do it! Best way to find out if lab work is for you. It’s not a typical job. You will work holidays and weekends. Your life revolves around those microbes. I love it but it’s not for everyone. Best way to see if it’s for you is to actually do it. Best of luck to you in finding your path.

@simona14033 I just finished my bachelors in microbiology. I can honestly say the curriculum isnt too bad. You're pretty much just going to learn about the different kinds of bacterias(gram negative and gram positives), structures of bacterias, and pathways regarding protein synthesis, and transport. In your lab courses you're going to learn about aseptic technique(keeping everything sterile),streaking, and a lot of different test procedures. It may seem intimidating right now, but when you actually dive into your microbio classes it can be really fun. On the plus side, having a microbiology degree means you can work anywhere that deals with bacteria: food industry, pharmaceutical, medical, water, etc. The degree itself is very flexible compared to something like a human bio degree.

This is easy; simple; direct; Try role of inter-colony signalling pheromones in Super Colonies for S. Invictus → Latin for invincible: Your helmet would be funny to them with ½-million specimens injecting Necrotoxins in Unison ▬ then if that is not enough try a species that just eats them for lunch - which then can be a carrier for Nematodes; Which then produce a subjective perception of having a *Tapeworm*

4:05 - Actually several Haemophilus species DO grow on both chocolate and blood agar. The chocolate vs blood comparison is typically used to identify Haemophilus influenzae which is pathogenic and can not grow on blood agar alone... but CAN grow in the beta-hemolysis rings caused by other bacteria (like S. aureus). Haemophilus parafluenzae however is non-pathogenic (usually) and it can grow on both plates. The two Haemophilus species are impossible to distinguish otherwise under a microscope/stained-slide. This isn't the only way chocolate plates are used, but its a key reason all throat swabs get chocolate plating in our lab. :)

@valeriestevens5440 6 жыл бұрын

He probably wasn’t supplementing with CO2. H influenzae won’t grow on chocolate with regular ambient air. Requires CO2. Common mistake. Temperature is important but for most human pathogens- they like added 5% CO2.

I encourage you to look into it if microbiology fascinates you. It captured my heart with a single Nova video on Brazilian Puperic fever. Set my goal to work where I do now and ironically ended up working with the Brazilian researcher from that very Nova video. Small world (microbiology pun intended 😊)

microbiologists generally don't wear gloves because you work with a flame to transfer microbes. Pretty much personal preference, I don't wear them because I don't want them to get melted to my hand. I do have an issue with these plates being open, they could be easily contaminated, you should only open them when necessary.

hi,you said agar is required to support the nutritional requirements and it has all the amino acids while we know that agar is just the solidifying agent to give the medium a solid texture and as far as it is known agar itself does not bear any growth factors or anything that might support the bacterial growth.If agar is the nutrition, shouldn't we find it dissolved or degraded because of the consumption of the bacterial culture as some of the bacterial culture does that to gelatin? thank you.

@ISTARI22 5 жыл бұрын

The base is agar, but when you make it into an agar, a premix of other ingredients like amino acid, lactose, glucose or other excipients have already been added. This is known as media. When making media, that is agar with other ingredients, simply boil water and add the premix powder and bring to boil. After which, the agar is put in bottles, autoclaved so that it is sterlized and cooled.

Wearing gloves in the microbiology lab is only a recent innovation. Unless the skin is injured or not healthy frequent hand washing was the only necessary requirement as skin is an impermeable barrier. And besides, everybody's hands have normal skin flora anyway which includes numerous staph species including the well know pathogen S. aureus. It's been argued that applying a glove over the skin causes the bacteria normally present there to multiply under those warm and humid conditions.
