    Year levels: Year 9 and above


    Microscopy in its many forms, is the single most powerful technique available to view cells and bacteria. People skilled in microscopy are sought after to work in both clinical and research laboratories.

    In this laboratory exercise, heat-fixed smears of yoghurt culture are stained to reveal the bacteria used to produce commercially available yoghurt. Since bacteria are typically not visible to the naked eye, a compound light microscope is used to view the cell morphology of the bacteria. When viewed using oil immersion at 1000 x total magnification, the size and shape of the stained bacteria is easily seen.
