Chlorella Vulgaris Experiment Report
III: MATERIALS AND METHODS
This section will give the list of materials and sample sites needed as well as the procedures in doing the experiment. Furthermore, the treatment groups are shown in here according to content of each treatment and the importance of this to answer the statement of the problems and prove the possibility of Chlorella vulgaris in reducing pollution load.
Experimentation
The microalgae Chlorella vulgaris will be obtained from the University of Los Baños which is in a solid powdered form in a sterilized container.
There will be two treatments, one control group and one treatment group containing triplicates for each. The treatment are as follow:
It is important to have a control group (T1) to determine the changes in the water quality without the use of Chlorella vulgaris. While the other treatment would like to pinpoint the ability of Chlorella vulgaris in reducing pollution load.
Each treatment groups will be tested in 20 days with an interval of 5 days for the content of Biological Oxygen Demand, Chemical Oxygen Demand, Dissolved Oxygen, pH level, Phosphate Content and Nitrate Content (Kjeldahl).
Sterilization of Equipment and Materials
The sterilization of the containers to be used for the water samples will be

Then, connect the tubing to a vacuum nozzle and then to the side of the filter flask. Check for the suction by feeling it at the end of the tubing. Next, place the black rubber ring adapter and the Buchner funnel and check again if there is a good suction. Lastly, the step is the vacuum filtering is by placing a filter paper in the Buchner funnel and let the water sample pass through in the center of the filter paper. After the procedure, do not forget to turn off the vacuum. (Vacuum Filtration,
Bio 101 Lab Report
602 Words | 3 PagesName: Avishak Deb Roy Partners: Leevell Penn, Varugh, Butler Bio 101 Lab Report #1 02.22.2018 Swimming speed of paramecium tetraurelia in different levels of treatment. Introduction Paramecia is a unicellular Protista which are naturally found in aquatic habitats. It is easily cultured in the laboratory. It is oblong shaped and covered with short hairy structure called cilia. Paramecia does not pose any health or ethical concerns and the population can be maintained if there is a food source such as Enterobacter (Biological Foundation 7).
Daphnia Magna Lab Report
247 Words | 1 PagesDaphnia Magna are small crustaceans that are excellent for observing the effect of depressants on their nervous system. The purpose of this specific experiment is to observe the effect of ethanol, aspirin, and caffeine on daphnia’s heart rate. Not only do these chemicals affect heart rate, but they also affect the frequency of reproduction, number of eggs produced, and body structure. Pesticides similar to these chemicals can be released into the environment and daphnia re useful in monitoring toxicity levels. The agents being tested in this experiment can be administered to determine the effects of hormones, stimulants, antidepressants, and neurotransmitters.

Lab Report For Daphnia Magna Experiment
449 Words | 2 PagesA transfer pipette was used to place a single Daphnia magna into the well of a concave slide and any excess water was removed by using a Kimwipe tissue. The use of a coverslip was unnecessary so that the specimen isn’t crushed and killed. The D. magna had enough water to allow its gills to function but not so much that it could’ve actively swim. The specimen’s heart was located using a light microscope using the lowest magnification.
Mixture Separation Lab Report
1072 Words | 5 PagesSquirt some distilled water onto the paper so it will stick. Place a beaker under the edge of the funnel to catch the water. For the final step, pour the remaining mixture components retained in the Petri dish into the filter funnel. Wait for the components to filter out into the
Bacillus Linchenilormis Experiment
506 Words | 3 PagesThroughout this work, a correlation between the enzyme activity and temperature existed. The data for both showed that at the temperature extremities the lower the enzyme activity was; except for the bacterial enzyme at 0°C. At high temperatures, an enzyme denatures or changes shape, making it difficult or impossible for a substrate to bind, and at low temperatures, the frequency and rate of reaction decreases causing for a halt in product formation (Pitzer et.al., 2012). Thus, showing that enzymes need to be in their optimal environments to work properly. Bacillus lincheniformis and Aspergillus oryzae are both organisms that live that in medium temperature environments.
Beta Vulgaris Lab Report
1572 Words | 7 PagesTo prepare the solutions a 70% ethanol solution was used to make 40%. This was calculated using the C1V1=C2V2 formula. A photo spectrometer was used to measure, in arbitrary units, the change in membrane permeability of the B. Vulgaris cells. To begin, the B. Vulgaris samples were put into vials containing the distilled water, 40% and 70% Ethanol solutions. As soon as the B. Vulgaris samples were added to the vials a time zero sample was taken from the vials.

1471 Words | 6 Pages6. Rinse a 500 ml volumetric flask with deionized water. 7. Label the volumetric flask so you know which solution is in it. 8.
Algae Growth Lab Report
843 Words | 4 PagesThe purpose of this lab was to test the effect of pollution on algae growth. Through a series of experiments that lasted a month, four of the six hypotheses were proven to be correct or partially correct. The first hypothesis stated that if 0.5 mL of salt was added to algae, then the algae would grow slower than the positive control. This was proven correct, as shown by the difference of the data from the positive control and the container with 0.5 mL of salt in it.
Hypovolemia Experiment
579 Words | 3 PagesHypovolemia is the term used when discussing a patient who is losing a significant amount of bodily fluid. For the report I will only discuss the effects on a patient who is experiencing Hypovolemia due to a hemorrhage. Some of the symptoms are, an increased heart rate, and a low urine flow rate. These symptoms are of particular note due to the fact that they can all be monitored and manipulated to help the patient survive. It is important to monitor the urine flow rate so that kidney function can be maintained.
Beta Vulgaris Cell Lab Report
1061 Words | 5 PagesThe B. Vulgaris samples were approximately 1cm3. They were kept the same size to ensure accurate results. A control test was conducted in distilled water to obtain a result to compare. The ethanol treatments were 40% and 70%. To prepare the solutions a 70% ethanol solution was used to make 40%.
