Arginine Test
Aim
The aim of this experiment is to determine whether B. subtilis 168 is able to take up external arginine.
Procedure
- Please refer to Arginine test
Expected results
Arginine is an amino acid that is acidic. Therefore if B. subtilis 168 is able to take up arginine, it will cause a pH change in the media. This would result in an increase in pH.
- Control (1) - No change in pH
- Control (2) - No change in pH
- Control (3) - Increase in pH, however will be lower than test 1 and test 2.
- Test (1) - Increase in pH
- Test (2) - Increase in pH
For actual results, please see 23.07.10 lab results.
Conclusion
For experimental conclusion, please see 23.07.2010 lab results.
