General Microbiology (BIOL 187) Laboratory Report (Unknown Identification) Page 1: Cover page Include your name, the unknown number and you final Genus and species identification Page 2: Test listing I want a (+) / (-) listing of each test in a vertical, easily scanned format Page 3: Discussion section Detail, in complete sentences, why your results justify your identification and rule out other possibilities. Page 4: About My Microbe section Research your microbe and give me a several paragraphs about your microbe. (Don't copy word-for-word from your textbook---This will be frowned upon!) Page 5: Dichotomous key Create a neat dichotomous key, which results in the correct separation of all 8 possible unknowns. This key should be legible and sized to occupy a complete sheet of paper (nothing microscopic is acceptable here) Page 6:Lab handout where you recorded your initial results Include the handout from lab where your recorded your data as you read the test reactions. Grading: 20 pts. Correct Identification 10 pts. Discussion section 7 pts. "About my microbe section" 8 pts. Dichotomous key 5 pts. Neatness, accuracy and completeness of report 50 points total
