bacteria project perfected

[sullivan]

For my science experiment, I am comparing different brands of antibacterial facial wash on bacteria to see which brand can rid the skin of bacteria the best. I will be soaking small pads in the facial wash, and putting them ontop of seperate bacteria colonies. To know which facial wash is the best, I will measure how far out the bacteria spreads from the pad of facial wash. If you have ideas on how to make this project as best it can get, please share as soon as possible! Thanks.

Hi sullivan,

Without going into the details of your project, general project and project display guidance is at:
Science Fair Project Guide: https://www.sciencebuddies.org/science- ... ndex.shtml

There may be other ideas related to facial wash and bacteria; these are not addressed above. You'll need to research these separately.

Hi, Sullivan--

What an interesting idea! I'll be curious to discover what you find out.

Dave has posted a good link, and I've got another one for you from the Science Buddies site. If you go here: https://www.sciencebuddies.org/science- ... a=MicroBio, you'll find a listing of projects involving bacterial culture and also, to the right, a list of Related Links that will give you tons of information about how to manage these kinds of projects.

Once you've had a chance to look at all of that, please come back and let us know further questions that you may have, and do also keep us posted on how your project is going. I'm interested in hearing about it!
