Module 1: Collection, Inoculation & Sub-culturing of OPD bacteria

Description

I collected this soil sample near a bayou to see if the soil near the bayou contained organophosphorus degrading bacteria which would indicate that pesticides were being used on land areas that are upstream/downstream from the nearby water source (brays bayou) mentioned above. The soil collected was also quite dry in texture and appearance.
