Exercise 1:
Bacterial types
individual cell in chain
(not filamentous)
Exercise 1: Bacteria Types - rod shaped
cluster of many cells
Exercise 1: Bacterial Types - spherical shaped
individual cell
Exercise 1: Bacterial Types - spiral shaped
Exercise 2:
Demonstration Slides
On the Side table are several microscopes set up
to demonstrate the following bacteria:
1. Neisseria gonorrhoeae – “Gonorrhoeae” Cocci,
gram negative
2. Borrelia burgdorferi – “Lyme disease”
3. Salmonella enteritidis - “Salmonella” gram
negative
4. Treponema sp. - “Syphilis”
5. Bacterial flagella – special stain to show flagella
Exercise 3:
Living Cultures of
Eubacteria
1. Obtain a dry microscope slide.
2. Your instructor will dispense to you one of
the following living bacteria.
1. Bacillus megaterium
2. Spirillium volutans
3. After observing place slide in the
disinfectant container on table.
Exercise 4:
Extracellular Digestion
Compare the results of the extracellular
digestion demonstration on the two different
Bacillus bacteria.

Exercise 5:
Effect of Antibiotics on
Bacteria
Bacteria cell wall::
upper gram positive
-- cell wall consists of
thick peptidoglycan
layers. Lower:
Gram negative --thick
outer layer of
lipoprotein and
lipopolysaccharide;
inner layer thin layer
of
peptidoglycan.
Eukayotic cells do not
have peptidoglycans-penicillin has no effect
on them.
Gram negative cells
do not have
cross links in the
peptidoglycan layer
and
are not susceptible to
penicillin.

DOMAIN“Archaea”
Exercise 7 Archaea
1. Obtain prepared slide # 65a
2. This slide has a mix of three Archaea
bacteria.
1. Halobacteria salinarium – small rods.
2. Methanomonas methylovara – larger
rods.
3. Halococcus agglomeratus – coccus.
