Bacterial Growth

We have grown bacteria in the incubator, and today we had a look at our results.  Please post a picture of your agar plate that clearly shows the bacterial growth.  Along with your picture, write a few sentences of written observations about the bacteria and provide the key or legend (where did you swab for each quadrant?).

Next, we should see if we can inhibit the growth of bacteria - Does hand sanitizer actually work?
Using a control and 3 different types of soap/sanitizer/bleach etc., do an experiment to see how effective each is at inhibiting the growth of bacteria.

We will check on them next week.
