Abstract
Bacteria are found everywhere on this planet. This experiment is aimed at observing some of the bacteria that surround us in places that we use everyday. We will look at bacteria found on a piece of chicken and bacteria found on a handrail. The effectiveness of antibacterial substances such as GermX® and alcohol will be studied. Paper discs dipped in GermX® and alcohol will be placed on the plate and the zone of inhibition will be measured in order to compare with the control.
Introduction
In this scientific study our group is conducting a study in order to see what type of bacteria would grow in two different environments and compare the environments in terms of bacterial growth. Our assigned environment was a piece of chicken. A study done by Dr. Norberg in 1981 showed that......
