Week one has definitely been a major rollercoaster.
Most of my classes got right into the nitty-gritty, almost making me play catch up! However, it was nothing too hard, considering I've gotten the rhythm of it all. Let's say the use of a planner has definitely helped me stay organized with everything happening for me this semester.
Aside from getting situated with my schedule, I began my research project on Wednesday the 29th of January, which was quite exciting for me. I started with the first step: inoculating a Lawn Culture plate and a Streak Isolation plate for the first bacteria, Escherichia coli, in my research. All I could do in the meantime was wait as they incubated overnight.
I was able to get a gram stain the next day, which has given me enough information to plan the upcoming tests to further learn about this bacteria.
Below are a few of my notes and necessary plates collected in the early stages of the cultures.
