as have ability to produce by spore so it falls under Phylum Firmicutes. It is classified in class Clostridia and further in order Clostridiales due to its spore forming ability. It is in Genus Clostridium because of being gram positive rod shaped(bacillus). It is originally founded in blood sausage and Latin word for sausage is botulism so is under Species Clostridium. This bacterium requires pH…

these results, all of the Gram negative genera were eliminated including: Enterobacter, Citrobacter, Klebsiella, Escherichia, Pseudomonas, Serratia, Alcaligenes, Neisseria, Proteus, Salmonella, Shigella, Erwinia, Veillonella, and Flavobacterium (5). Bacillus, Lactobacillus, Listeria, Kurthia, and Arthrobacter were eliminated because they did not match the coccoid shape of Unknown 15 (5). The catalase test was the next designated test in the identification of Unknown 15. Unknown 15 tested…

As the name of the disease implies, it is associated with a scratch from an infected cat but is also transmitted through a cat bite and, in some instances, cat fleas (Forbes, 2007).

There is a vaccine against tuberculosis called bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) that prevents 20% of children from catching…

Genetically modified crops were first produced in 1982 and commercially introduced in 1996. Plants are no longer victim to pesticide use or climate conditions. Farmers in third world countries are now able to produce more crops with higher nutrition levels. Vaccinations can potentially be made and administered as edible substances. While many consumers graciously accepted them due to their possible benefits, others protested their introduction due to a lack of evidence concerning potential risks…
