In this experiment I will find out how much bacteria is on the grip of a tennis racket and does it vary with different cleaning habits.
Good job on a very curious and eye-opening project! Your systematic approach to testing different rackets especially using gloves to prevent cross-contamination, it shows a high level of scientific in-depth. I was particularly intrigued by your result that the brand-new racket carried the most bacteria and mold. This is a fantastic example of how science often challenges our assumptions. Your detailed descriptions of the different bacterial colors and textures were excellent. Keep asking these types of ‘unseen’ questions, you are a very observant scientist
