BIO 513 - Microbial Ecology Laboratory

Institution:

Creighton University

Subject:

Biology

Description:

Microbial Ecology Laboratory will explore the ubiquitous nature of microbial life in common and functionally important habitats such as soils, and in extreme and unusual habitats, such as anoxic sediments and alkaline lakes. The diverse roles played by microbes in biogeochemical cycling will be the central theme of course activities. Trips to field locations including freshwater lakes and native grasslands will be combined with laboratory skills building. Methods for sampling microbial communities, assessment of microbial activity, enrichment culture, and aseptic technique will be emphasized.3L. P: BIO 211 and 212
