    • 6 Pages

    Discussion: The isolate studied was tested for innate antibiotic function on the following media: AC, LB, and 10% TSA. The ESKAPE relative strain that presented a response to the isolate was B.subtilis. In all cases except for that of LB, the isolate showed antibiotic qualities towards B.subtilis by presenting a zone of clearance on AC and 10% TSA media. This behavior is shown in Figures 4, 5, and 6.In the case with LB, B.subtilis inhibited the growth of the isolate as depicted by the empty…

    Salmonella infection in food is the one of the major causes of foodborne illnesses including fever, abdominal pain, diarrhea, and nausea. Thus, early detection of Salmonella contamination is important for our healthy life. Conventional detection methods for the food contamination have limitations in sensitivity and rapidity, thus the early phase detection has been difficult. Herein, we developed a bioelectronic nose using a carbon nanotube (CNT) field-effect transistor (FET) functionalized with…

    1. One of the main topics could be the drug resistance mechanisms of bacteria. 2. First, spontaneous mutation which changes the drug target or upregulate drug efflux. Second, Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) that the genes in bacteria acquire to become resistant. HGT can cause multidrug resistance in a genetic event which make the bacteria become resistance. Third, the ability of bacteria that they can form biofilm while they are being infected. The bacteria provide themselves protection to…

    Mary Farmer has Gram-positive cocci, Streptococcus aureus, and Brian Evans has Gram-negative bacilli, Escherichia coli. From this, we know that Culture A’s bacteria has a thick cell wall with no outer membrane and Culture B has a thin cell wall with an outer membrane. From the results of the Gram’s test, neither patient is infected with more than one strain and…

    of inhibition which has a diameter range of 7mm to 10mm. In this study, the extract of hexane of S.aromaticum showed positive antibacterial properties against E. coli, and S. aureus for concentrations of 25, 50, 75, 100. The methanol extract showed positive against S. aureus for 75 and 100 mg/ml. The DCM extract showed positive for E. coli, S. aureus, (100 mg/ml). The comparison of the three extracts of clove oil shows that the hexane extract of clove oil has the highest zone of inhibition with…

    The human gut contains numerous organisms including bacteria, viruses and fungi. These gut microbes have co-evolved with host through for a very long time and at baseline, provide a beneficial relationship with the host. This paper will focus on bacteria, which are multiple factors more than human cells in number. These bacteria have a significant effect on humans and play a significant role in maintaining one’s health. Despite the countless research projects that target these bacteria, their…

    a. Compare levels of eicosanoids, endotoxins (eg, LPS), and exotoxins within the ‘contaminated’ tissues and replicate study with fresh PBS. Comparing inflammatory cytokine levels may also be beneficial; however, given that they are implicated in / linked to a number of processes and pathologies one needs to know which one in particular to look at. b. If I understand what is being asked here, generally speaking bacteria enters the body leading to the communication of visceral inflammatory…

    There were many tests performed on my unknown, which led me to conclude that the unknown microorganism is Pseudomonas fluorescens. When determining the gram reaction of the unknown, a Gram stain was done. This process differentiates between a Gram-positive and Gram-negative microorganism. This is done in four steps. The microorganism was stained with iodine, crystal violet, alcohol and acetone, and safranin. Iodine was used first as it acts as a mordant. It forms an insoluble complex by binding…
