Aseptic Techniques
An exercise covering the Winogradsky Column in identifying Photosynthetic Bacteria has been expanded.
Cautionary Boxes have been incorporated throughout the manual to increase student awareness of lab safety.

The Instructor's Manual provides a materials list and guidelines for conducting all the experiments, as well as answers to the lab exercises.You can customize this book to meet your exact needs and mix and match with other items on Primis Online allowing you maximum choice and flexibility.
