Producing a Strain of E. coli that Glows in the Dark
Students observe the experimental process called bacterial transformation and demonstrate phenotype changes in bacteria that have been transformed with an antibiotic-resistance gene and a metabolic marker. They create a luminescent...
Curated OER
Superbugs: An Evolving Concern
Students investigate the growth of bacteria in the presence of antibiotics. They write a hypothesis, conduct an experiment to test their hypothesis, analyze the results of their bacterial growth experiment, and describe the results on a...
Curated OER
E.coli and their Human Environment
Pupils observe how environmental changes (antibiotics) can affect the growth of E.coli, the rod shaped intestinal bacterium. They use the "F" test for statistical analysis. Students
Curated OER
When Microbes Attack
Pupils study how the body defends itself against the invasion of harmful microbes and how certain types of drugs can provide assistance. They design and execute their own experiments to test whether increasing the number of types of...
