Antibiotic

Many bacterias are present without us realizing it. Bacteria that are present and ready to reproduce can cause problems in our daily lives at any rate. Mascara users are at risk from contaminants that may exist within their mascara wands or tube of mascara. Without proper care, bacterias will grow within the walls of the tube and cause many issues to users in the long run due to reapplying the product on a daily basis. “That mascara wand can do more than just make your lashes longer; it can…

medicaments, and perhaps more importantly, its ability to acquire resistance to all currently available medications and antibiotics, either by mutation or by horizontal gene transfer8. The close proximity of bacterial cells within the biofilm readily allows the exchange of genetic information, including the transfer of antibiotic resistance. In addition to the intrinsic or acquired antibiotic resistance of E. faecalis, the organisation of cells in a biofilm structure could be a further factor…

Bacterial meningitis requires extra precaution since the condition can induce serious problems and demands close monitoring, which is why treatment in hospitals are recommended. Treatments for severe viral meningitis include: antibiotics which is directly given in the vein, fluids to prevent dehydration is also given directly to the vein, to help decrease any inflammation around the brain, steroid medication is given and patients with breathing difficulties require oxygen through…

Clostridium tetani is a bacillus, or rod-shaped bacteria responsible for the often-fatal disease tetanus. The word tetanus originated from the Greek word tetanos, which means to ‘stretch’. It is a Gram-positive bacterium and often appears to be shaped like a tennis racket, drumstick, or club when stained. This unusual appearance is the result of sporulation that occurs within the cell. C. tetani is an obligate anaerobe and relies solely on fermentation. Since it is an obligate anaerobe, this…

Exploring Bacterial Transformation Ian Nall BIO 181 | Section #73116 | Wednesday 1:30-4:15pm Abstract This experiment was designed to test the properties of bacterial transformation. The bacteria used was E. coli, the protein being added to it is called Green Fluorescent Protein or GFP from a jellyfish the Aequorea victoria. The GFP, in the form of a plasmid called pGLO, was added to a sample of E. coli and a control was created of E. coli without it. The E. coli was then placed…

The variable located at the left side of the diagram, the effect of malunggay and ginger root extracts is the independent variable which in being manipulated for the dependent variable, the time spent in treating the sample infected by trichophyton rubrum. The main purpose of this study is to produce an organic antibacterial treatment for Trichophyton rubrum using Malunggay (Moringa oleifera) and Ginger (Zingiber officinale). Specifically, this study aims to answer the following: 1. In which…

1.Introduction: Background/Aim. 1.1 Nature of the microorganism: Enterococcus faecalis was placed under group D streptococci because of similar lysis characters; Identified as Gram positive, non-motile, anaerobic fermentative, lactic acid bacteria; are commensal inhabitant of intestinal bacteria and opportunistic pathogens. They occur singly or in pairs or chains. 1.2 Economic importance: Enterococcus faecalis is also used as a probiotic for production of Mediterranean cheese and meat products…

100 Days of Horror with Bordetella Pertussis by Isabella Theamaree Fortun Bordetella pertussis is a fimbriated Gram-negative, pleomorphic, aerobic coccobacillus. It also has a surface associated microcapsule however the role of this is unknown. Bordetella species, in general, grow best at 35° to 37° C. 1 Their growth is fastidious, and this degree of fastidiousness is inversely proportional to its rate of growth.1 Among all Bordetella species, Bordetella pertussis is the most…
