Lab Report #10 - 2 December 2013

It's getting cold again, but it still hasn't snowed. I guess that's good, because now even snow isn't an excuse to get out of work, and shoveling my driveway isn't fun.

Not that I hate work, considering what I get to do, but waking up in the cold is such a pain.

I guess I haven't been on here in a while, so what's going on with everyone else?

Maybe Ootori knows something about them? I dunno. I didn't even take music theory.

We could go to America or England or something. Do we have an excuse? Maybe there's a project there we can work on together!

Luuuuucky! Sensei never stopped talking and she was so boring. Not sure if Chou-kun would remember, but I can ask!

Hmm, I have an idea that needs Chemistry in it, more than what I know anyway. I want to try and use some chemicals to try and act as a way of catching criminals. I heard something about how there are unique kinds of bacteria in every human and stuff and how certain chemicals react to certain bacteria.... it's kinda complex to explain here. But there's an expert about it all in England~!

Why did you even take that? Everyone said it was awful!

... Wait, unique bacteria on everyone? How do vaccines work then?
But how would you make it work so that specific chemicals affect multiple strains of the same bacteria even if they're different?

Tell me what the expert says. I wanna know more about it!

Couldn't get art because I missed the due date.... ^^; So I got stuck with music theory 'cause I needed an arts class.

Well, vaccines work on the more invasive bacteria, right? The one that spreads from person to person, that's not been in our body enough to adapt to the different biome.
But everyone has bacteria in them that's like helpful to them, like the flora in our stomach and stuff. And our body doesn't reject it because its reaally helpful, so it stays and it kinda adapts to our body and gets slightly different. That's what the paper said, anyway.

As for the chemicals part, I think there are like common traits to all of the bacteria, that identifies their species and the chemical would have to react to that part. Like how we can differentiate between different humans, but we all know that we're human, yanno?

[acrobatichemist.livejournal.com]

Oh, that's true. So... would this be focusing on the bacteria in your guts? Or where else would you get the differentiated bacteria?

That makes sense. Yeah, I get it.

[jirouvolley.livejournal.com]

That's the part I need to work on, because it's really difficult to leave the bacteria from your guts at a crime scene ;P

And yaaay~

[acrobatichemist.livejournal.com]

Er, are there differentiated bacteria anywhere else on your body...?
Like, in your hair or something?

[jirouvolley.livejournal.com]

There might be...that's one thing I've gotta ask him! :) Some stuff online correlates it...but I always trust real people a bit more.

[acrobatichemist.livejournal.com]

Real people should be better. It would suck to spend a bunch of time on something that can't work or can only work if the guy like, doesn't wash his hands after going to the bathroom.

Though I bet that would improve hygiene among criminals.

[jirouvolley.livejournal.com]

I bet it would! All the criminals you always see on TV look like they haven't bathed in five or more weeks :|

You'll be doing the world a favor no matter where the bacteria have to come from!
