Unknown lab report

Dear Student, the bacterial organism you will be researching on is……. Streptococcus mitis

Unknown Report – The organisms used for this assignment are
associated with exercise 40 of the lab manual. Each student will be responsible for determining
the stains and tests that would be used to identify their organism, which will include the
expected results and the materials/methods used to perform each of the tests. Once all of this
is complete, students will research the background information about their organism that can
include where they are naturally found, diseases it may be associated with, or any other
relevant information about the organism. In order to do this, students will need to use a
minimum of 5 resources (textbook, lab manual, internet, etc.) to obtain the background
information needed for their report. All of the information and expected results will be
organized into a report that will include the following sections:
• Cover page – student’s name, class time, and the name of their organism.
• Introduction – background information about the organism with cited references.
• Materials & Methods – list of items used for each test and how they would be used
(preferably in chronological order).
• Expected Results & Interpretations – describe the expected results from each test that
enables one to identify the organism.
• Works Cited – list all of the sources used to collect the background information about
the organism. Plagiarism will not be tolerated. All sources will be verified.

The body of the report will need to be typed in 12-point font with 1” margins and double-
spaced.
