Describe what you could do to determine if the bubbles were produced by catalase in the bacteria or catalase (or other enzyme) in the red blood cells? What are the negative consequences to the cell producing hydrogen peroxide in the ways described in this exercise?

Record your observations below. For the second table, do some research about each of your chemicals. Answers should address specific effects to the cell membrane, cell wall, and any internal structures. If there are any antifungal, antiviral, or antiprotozoal effects, they can be noted in the right-hand column. Based on your results, which chemical worked best?

If you cannot make a determination based on these results, write in “N/A.” (Since you have already written the full scientific name of each organism, you may appropriately abbreviate them here.) Is MSA selective, differential or both? What medium would you use to plate a sample from the lesion? What result do you expect if the Staphylococcus aureus is present?

Each colony arises from a single bacterium or a few bacteria (CFU). Although individual cells are too small to be viewed with the unaided eye, masses of cells can be observed. Colonies can have different forms, margins, elevations and colors. Observing colony characteristics is one piece of information that microbiologists can use to identify unknown bacteria.

In this scenario, the cytochrome is the reducing agent because in this step of the ETS, it is the source of the electrons.
