7th week

Microbiology

On the previous week, we had learned on the external structures of prokaryotes, so this week we moved on into a new topic which is ' The Internal Structure of Prokaryote'



We were assigned to answer a few questions and quiz prepared by Dr Wan regarding to the topic. 

Basic Technique of Microbiology

We learned on how to carry out differential staining during this week lab session. Two types of staining that we had done which are the Gram staining and the Acid-fast staining. Both of these staining methods are use to distinguish between two different group of microorganisms.

First Class of Second Semester (2nd Week)

Hi peeps! 😊 For our first microbiology class, we were briefed about topics that we are going to learn throughout this second semester generally. And of course, more upcoming projects that we have during this sem. We were divided into new groups and assigned with specific microorganisms for each group. I am in group Fungi 🍄 During the second class of the class, we were given a task to construct a mind map about Microbial Systematic in Fungi. We swapped our mind map with other groups and jotted down things or information that were not stated in the mind map yet. This activity help us to share informations and improved among each other. This semester will be a long and tiring as we have a lot of assignments and lab reports 😪😴  But we will boost up our energy to go through this semester really well and excellenty! 💪
