 Describe the characteristics of a prokaryotic genome.  Explain the principle of genetic engineering and their applications.  Select appropriate methods to study microorganisms.  Analyze the role of microbes in human disease and public health. Course outcome practiced with this Assignment: HS320-4: Discuss principles of microbial genetics in health science. Instructions  Prepare an outline of the final Project that you will submit for Unit 9.  The outline must contain the following: 1. Title of the paper 2. Reason why you chose this pathogen 3. Three (3) main ideas/points that will be discussed (you must include importance of plasmids in bacterial genetics and in genetic engineering) 

Briefly, comment on the role of AMPC and Petrifilm AC and why is this step important for food testing. How  were colony types differentiated and confirmed for presence of bacteria? Comment on the results you obtained.

b. Briefly, discuss the enumeration technique for DRBC and YMCompact Dry. Comment on the sensitivities of DRBC and Compact dry. For what purpose would you select one of this method over the others.

c. Briefly, comment on how would confirm the colonies on DRBC is indeed yeast and not bacteria.

d.  Briefly comment on the results obtained for DRBC and YM Compact Dry. What consideration did you take when comparing the results.

e. Comment on the role of PetriFilms CC and EC.

f.  How would you further characterize colonies from VRBLA for confirmed coliforms and confirmed E. coli. Explain the enumeration technique for each  and their incubation time /temperature. Discuss the importance of the incubation set-up.

g. Comment on  your results for the presumptive and confirmed coliforms and E. col
