Klinger substrate

Klinger substrate - a diagnostic solid substrate for gram-negative sticks with low nutritional requirements. Frequently used in the diagnosis of enterobacteria. It allows you to examine the ability of glucose, lactose and hydrogen sulphide production. The substrate is prepared in small semi-chunks. The medium contains peptone, lactose, glucose, ferrous sulphate and phenol red indicator. Glucose is expressed by acidification and yellowing of the entire medium. No change in the color of the substrate means no degradation of sugars. The production of large quantities of CO2 or H2 during fermentation is visualized by tearing the substrate or lifting it. The formation of H2S occurs in an acidic environment (the acidic environment is formed during the degradation of glucose) and results in the formation of an insoluble black iron sulfide precipitate.

Spontaneous emission

A - atom in the excited state (electron at E2 energy level) B - photon emission (hν) C - atom in low energy state (electron at E1 & lt; E2) Spontaneous emission occurs when electrons on levels excited spontaneously return to lower energy levels, emitting photons. The phenomenon occurs universally and is responsible for almost every luminescence of bodies, eg warm gases, excited atoms, liquid and solid bodies, as well as electronic devices such as light emitting diodes (LED). The number of body spontaneous emissions in which the excited state is N atoms is given by the formula: & # x2202; N & # x2202; t = & # x2212; A 21 N {\displaystyle {\frac {\partial N}{\partial t}}=-A_{21}N} , where A21 is a constant emission factor for a given atomic transition (constant introduced by Einstein). In the absence of new excitations, this leads to the equation determining the number of atoms remaining in the excited state: N ( t ) = N ( 0 ) e & # x2212; t τ 21 {\displays...
