Microbiology

Grasp the scientific study of microorganisms with lab simulations covering a variety of topics—from cellular structure and gram staining to bacterial genetics.

FeaturedSimulations for Microbiology

Staining: Gram Staining , Link will open in a new window

In this simulation, you will practice the preparation of the major bacterial visualization protocol known as Gram staining.

Unknown Bacterial Identification (10 samples) , Link will open in a new window

In these simulations, you will be provided with many different testing protocols that will help identify unknown bacteria.

Biochemical Testing: Antimicrobial Testing for Gram-Positive Cocci Identification , Link will open in a new window

In this activity you will conduct four antimicrobial sensitivity tests on isolated species of Staphylococcus or Streptococcus using blood agar plates and antimicrobial disks. This will help you learn to observe zones of inhibition and how to interpret those results.
