Tiny Earth Lab Experiment

Tiny Earth Lab Experiment The tiny earth experiment focuses on bacteria and finding its safe pathogens. To do this you start by collecting soil, then following by doing a soil dilution experiment. Continuing to find the safe ESKAPEs that inhibited when looking at your agars, then making a screening plate out of the bacteria that showed inhibition. Then doing several different staining techniques to determine what type of antibiotic has formed.Through this the problem antibiotic resistance forms, meaning these bacteria can now resist the previously out medicine to help relieve these infections. We have found that as our bodies grow and have used these medicines countless times our bodies start to become immune to the treatment being used. These findings will highlight the potential of soil as a source of bacteria fighting antibiotics to address the global health crisis of antibiotic resistance.
