development of fused, multinucleated supercells. Transparent vesicular fluid, the virus-rich contents of the cells, accumulates between the dermal and epidermal layers, and is what leads to the blistered appearance of a cold sore. Neutrophils and lymphocytes are also present in vesicular fluid as they aggregate around lysed cells to remove cell contents…

factors of this leukemia is its ability to be asymptomatic for a long duration of time and to be commonly found amongst aged populations and not noticed in its early stages (Malek 2013, p.2). This cancer is found in the bone marrow produces in excess lymphocytes which can be best described as a white blood cells or B cells, this cell population have an aggressive characterisation that lead to cancer (Moussay et al. 2011). • Malek, S 2013, Advances in Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia, Springer. •…

For legitimate purposes, the screening technique takes out all negatives, positive results viewed as possible and require affirmation utilizing corroborative strategies, for example, elite fluid…

Background Benzo(a)pyrene (BaP), a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon(PAH) when infiltrated within the body of humans and animals undergoes a series of chemically modified changes to form a number of metabolites that are known to elicit portentous and toxic effects (4). Benzo(a)pyrene has a chemical formula of C20H12 and is considered a Group 1 Carcinogen by the International Agency for Research and Cancer (IARC) (7, 11). It is composed of a cyclic structure and crystals appear to be pale yellow…

The innate immune system is the defense mechanism that is activated immediately or shortly after the body is exposed to invading microorganisms.1 This system is quick in response and does not have a memory, meaning it doesn’t need previous exposure to the foreign microbe’s antigen before it can be activated.2 The adaptive immune system consists of antigen-specific immune responses.2 This system is slow in response because after it is exposed to an antigen, it needs time to process the antigen…
