Hi,
today luke did water filtration with water from the Brayford and innoculated nutrient agar plates with the filtered discs and incubated them at 30C for two days. The mannitol salt agar plates that had been spread plated with water from the Brayford showed large yellowy mucoid colonies, this was a positive for a Staphylococcus species. Using a sample from the mannitol salt plates and from the E.coli luke streaked the day before, Sharon and Luke performed Gram stains to compare the colonies. We then made up 1000ml of 50X TAE, and a 1% agarose gel for Steve. I have confirmd two more of my bacterial cultures, hopefully tomorrow i can inoculate them into broths and then into stabs and slopes.
