Geological Survey, Columbia Environmental Research Center, 4200 New Haven Road, Columbia, MO 65201, USAb U.S. Geological Survey, Oregon Water Science Center, 2130 SW 5th Avenue, Portland, OR 97201, USA Received 30 April 2013, Revised 30 July 2013, Accepted 30 July 2013, Available online 23 August 2013 Editor: John S Williams Choose an option to locate/access this article: Check if you have access through your login credentials or your institution Check access doi:10.1016/j.scitotenv.2013.07.128 Get rights and content Highlights SPMDs and POCIS were used to track trends in contaminant concentrations. Contaminant profiles were related to surrounding land-use. Temporal trends are poorly defined while chemical loadings followed rainfall levels. Abstract The Lower Columbia River in Oregon and Washington, USA, is an important resource for aquatic and terrestrial organisms, agriculture, and commerce. Keywords.

The MSA will select for organisms such as Staphylococcus species which can live in areas of high salt concentration (plate on the left in the picture below). This is in contrast to Streptococcus species, whose growth is selected against by this high salt agar (plate on the right in the picture below). Glucose broth with Durham tubes This is a differential medium.

Blood Agar Plates (BAP) This is a differential medium. What type of hemolysis is seen on each one of the following plates? Streak-stab technique Often when inoculating a BAP to observe hemoloysis patterns, investigators will also stab several times through the agar using an inoculating loop. Bile Esculin Agar This is a medium that is both selective and differential. Sulfur Indole Motility Media (SIM) This is a differential medium. Kliger’s Iron Agar (KIA) CAMP Test.

To determine the ability to degrade amino acids. To determine the ability of microorganism to produce gaseous end products in fermentation. A metabolic process performed by almost all types of bacteria is known as fermentation. This will result in the production of ATP, the ultimate energy source of the organism. This will happen either in the presence or absence of atmospheric oxygen. Lab - General Biology. Biology 211 Labs.
