Soil experiment

by Coralie

Soil

Observation of plates (31/07/2015):

• Soil + H2O on new MCK: lots of colonies are visible
• Soil + LB on new MCK: lots of colonies are visible
• LB on new MCK: nothing
• MCK alone: nothing

We can suppose two different hypothesis:

• The soil is contaminated
• the MCK isn't OK for our experiment: now we add lactose in the preparation. We will try with sorbitol instead of lactose.

We try soil + H2O and soil +LB on:

• MCK + Sorbitol: Without antibiotics, with Spectinomycine, Tetramycine or Chloramphenicol
• MCK + Lactose: Without antibiotics, with Spectinomycine, Tetramycine or Chloramphenicol

Incubation ON, 37°C

Member present:

• Instructors: Claire
• Students: Coralie, Audrey and Pauline
