Dear Blog and Blog Readers, 

Today we check the blood agar plates that were infected with bacteria from our noses. 



It appears only Samantha had an indication of S. aureus. However, there is only partial lysis, so it is a form of Staph but not the bacteria in it's most dangerous form.



We also swabbed a sink handle and infected a nutrient agar plate with the bacteria. We then split the plate into 4 sections and placed a different disinfectant in each section to test what would inhibit the growth of this particular bacteria.
