Student Name: Click here to enter text.
Access Code (located on the underside of the lid of your lab kit): AC-9JM12U
“Pre-Lab Questions”
1. Proper aseptic technique is crucial to ensuring growth of pure bacterial colonies. What is one
experimental way you can test your practices to confirm that you are using proper aseptic
technique?
Utilizing a sterile flared circle to move material, a sterile pipet to move fluid,
and confining an unadulterated culture are completely ensured approaches
to check you're following appropriate aseptic convention.
2. In a laboratory setting, what are three ways you can properly sterilize culturing equipment?
a. Using bleaching solvents
b. Using autoclave
c. Using a flame
3. For each inoculation tool, give one scenario in which use of that tool would be appropriate.
When collecting microbiological samples from surfaces, sterile cotton
swabs are typically employed. When transferring microorganisms from one
plate to another, inoculation loops would be employed. When collecting
germs from a specific area, inoculation needles are employed. To transmit
an even bacterial lawn, sterile plate spreaders are utilized.
