MICROBIOLOGY 101 LABORATORY SCHEDULE: FALL 1999

REVISED: 08/04/99


The laboratory manual is available on the Internet, and at the Cougar Copy Center in the CUB basement. Students may obtain a copy of the Micro 101 Laboratory Lab Manual:

The student is required TO BRING THE COMPLETE LAB MANUAL TO EACH LABORATORY as well as the second edition of the A PHOTOGRAPHIC ATLAS for the MICROBIOLOGY LABORATORY. The ATLAS is sold at the Bookie & students may purchase it in pairs to save money. Failure to bring the lab manual to class after the first week will cost points.

It is required that you read the material and view the URLs ahead of time so that you will have some idea of how to proceed. The TAs MAY ask quiz questions on the topic of TODAY'S EXERCISE.
