{"product_id":"introductory-microbiology-kit","title":"Introductory Microbiology Kit","description":"This microbiology kit has been designed as an introduction to the study of micro-organisms. The booklet has been written for the teacher who has little or no experience of handling micro-organisms and includes full instructions on safety, aseptic techniques, growing micro-organisms and their safe disposal. All of the experiments are set out step by step and cover a range of needs from 12-year-olds to sixth-form students.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe kit could be used by a single student working through all the experiments or by a group working in parallel. The reagents, cultures and media can be stored for several months, particularly if they are refrigerated. It is possible to keep cultures for longer periods, providing they are sub-cultured on to fresh medium at regular intervals.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eExperiments included in the teaching notes are as follows:\u003cbr\u003eMaking broth cultures\u003cbr\u003eEffects of temperature\u003cbr\u003eMaking plate cultures\u003cbr\u003eEffect of antibiotics\u003cbr\u003eGram's staining\u003cbr\u003eNegative staining\u003cbr\u003ePasteurisation\u003cbr\u003eExamining living bacteria\u003cbr\u003eHow fungi obtain food\u003cbr\u003eBacteria around us\u003cbr\u003eLooking at fungi\u003cbr\u003eBacteria in soil\u003cbr\u003eThe life cycle of Mucor\u003cbr\u003eBacteria in milk\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe kit contains:\u003cbr\u003eFungi Cultures: Aspergillus oryzae, Mucor+, Mucor-,\u003cbr\u003eBacterial Cultures: Penicillium chrysogenum, Bacillus stearothermophilus, Staphylococcus albus, Escherica coli,\u003cbr\u003e10 x nutrient agar deeps\u003cbr\u003e5 x nutrient broths\u003cbr\u003e1 x starch agar\u003cbr\u003e1 x malt extract agar\u003cbr\u003e1 x china blue lactose agar\u003cbr\u003e20 x petri dishes\u003cbr\u003e1 x universal container\u003cbr\u003e1 pair of gloves\u003cbr\u003e50 pre-cleaned slides\u003cbr\u003e100 x 18mm square coverslips\u003cbr\u003e2 x sterile pipettes\u003cbr\u003e5 x cavity slides\u003cbr\u003e1 x inoculating loop\u003cbr\u003eChinagraph Pencil\u003cbr\u003e3 x disposal bags\u003cbr\u003e1 x alcohol bottle (empty)\u003cbr\u003e1 x Grams Iodine\u003cbr\u003e1 x Crystal Violet\u003cbr\u003e1 x Neutral Red\u003cbr\u003e1 x Aniline Blue\u003cbr\u003e1 x nigrosine\u003cbr\u003e1 x 10% Resazurin Tablets\u003cbr\u003e10 x Streptomycin - 25 units\u003cbr\u003e10 x Penicillin - 1.5 units\u003cbr\u003e10 x Penicillin - 5 units\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAll parts of the kit can be replaced from our extensive range of cultures, media, reagents and equipment.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePlease note: Alcohol has been omitted from the kit, although an empty bottle for it is provided.
